Review by Maxim

Less natural, less Brazilian, CSS second album loses a part of his Latin America flavor for a more worked and more homogeny composition than its predecessor. Most of the tracks are obviously good stuff even if I miss Brazilian-ness in this LP.

Excellent debut album from Sony's new artist Angela Aki, who released great pop songs, all leaded by piano. You can find in this album Final Fantasy XII and Blood+ themes.

Last Namie Amuro featuring three new songs, sampling each a song from 60's, 70's and 80's decade. The single is awesome, especially NEW LOOK, my favorite so far. ROCK STEADY and WHAT A FELLING are still good though. Great cover too. A must have in Namie's Discography.

Second album by Angela Aki, and it is great! More adds of instruments of each track, it sounds better than the first album. Angela Aki really worked hard on this album and it makes it more powerful and beautiful.

Good autumnal single for Koda Kumi, who comes with the excellent Yume no Uta, and the less-mediatized Futari de...

Excellent new dvd live by Ai Otsuka. Ai gives all her energy with her musicians and her dancers for a more than 2H live.

New full album by Otsuka Ai ! This album features the great CHU-LIP, the summerish PEACH, and the movie themed song Yumekui ! New tracks are great, the electronic Mirai Taxi, the crazy Katorisenkou, and others for 5 new tracks!

New album by Otsuka Ai, 2 years after LOVE COOK, and 5 singles. It's an excellent album, so bad there's only five new songs... You won't be disappointed by Otsuka Ai's LOVE PiECE !!
