The versatility Puni Puni Denki brings to songs continues to surprise, and her latest number reveals her at her most tender yet. Here she teams up with the duo Mikeneko Homeless once again, as they also were involved in this year’s “Kimi Wa Queen,” but whereas as that number paired springy music with more melancholy singing, “Neon Ocean” opts for a sparser backdrop. They use piano melodies and a few other twinkling features to create something with plenty of space, which allows Puni Puni Denki the chance to deliver a more understated vocal performance, culminating in a particularly airy chorus. Listen above (or via your preferred streaming platform).
