Our year-end list starts posting soon, but in a nice bit of “ahhhh remember that?,” pop project Parupunte released Best Of Parupunte 2013~2015 over the weekend. The group, which creates (created?) simple but affecting pop, landed in the top ten of our 2015 list with the still-striking Primitive. Large chunks of that album appear on this compilation, along with loosies they released via SoundClound, and it’s as comprehensive a collection of music from Parupunte as you’ll find today. More importantly, it’s a fantastic way to get a listen to what makes (made???) this project so interesting, whether from the simple-but-endearing harmonies of “Nyan Toka Nyarusa” to the dance-thump of “White Sucide” to the drum ‘n’ bass fireworks of “Yume Miteru.” And re-listening to their work, it feels like they were ahead of the curve when it came to how genre borders would collapse completely in the late 2010s…which, well, wait for this year’s countdown. Get it here, or listen below.
