Description

[Machine Translation] After selling out 500 copies of their demo soundtracks (two titles each) at live venues, simploop is now ready to release their first pressings in Hiroshima, spreading rumors at a slow pace. The popular songs "Spiral" and "Sunshine," which are well-known at simploop's live performances, are newly recorded with straightforward melodies and a sense of speed, while "Niji," a medium ballad with a sense of transparency and warmth, is a popular song from the past. The theme of "no.3" is garage and beat, and "WHY?" is an aggressive beat-driven song with an emphasis on words over notes. flyng" conveys call and response and a straightforward live performance. Tanaka's songs, which sometimes convey a sense of nostalgia and tenderness, sometimes convey a strong message, creating six songs with six different colors, and packaging non-categorizable songs with a pop and rock base. The album is a Hiroshima-style release by simploop that can be listened to by men and women of all ages and genders, and it has become a substitute for their business card. Immediately after the release, the band was chosen to represent Hiroshima at the large-scale live circuit event "MUSIC CUBE10" ( March 20 and 21) in Hiroshima, where they will be joined by a lineup of famous artists. The band will also release their first sound source for a wide share of the public, and will send it out from Hiroshima to the rest of the country. In 2008, the band held its first live concert and began actively performing once or twice a month. The band has an established reputation for their live performances, and released a maxi-single "Spiral / Sunshine" as a self-produced CD-R with songs that put the band's color at the forefront. The band gradually begins to attract a growing number of regular customers. December: Released their second self-produced maxi-single "Glass ni Maria" (CD-R), which was sold at live venues. The three members, who had previously been working individually as a band, came together spontaneously, and their simple yet rock and pop taste in sound approach and the nostalgic character of vocalist Tanaka have become the core of simploop, which continues to evolve.
