Released at the very start of the year, pop trio w-inds’ “We Don’t Need To Talk Anymore” beat most J-pop to the trop-house punch, leading to a (surprisingly solid!) full-length riffing on similar ideas. The song became a go-to for a lot of remixes from all corners of Japanese music, many of them good but…
Another year, another 12 months where I initially add a “W” to the end of this band’s name. Anyway, DYGL…not Leather, DYGL…have a new song called “All The Time” up on SoundCloud.

It’s a synty-heavy waltz, featuring a big, semi-distorted beat, the bulk of it being ambiguous enough to let…
