Summer Feel: Commune310 Presents Commune310 Suika Featuring Loopcoda, Dog Noise And More

ByPatrick St. Michel

Summer might be nearing a close, but Commune310 refuses to let it pass without a final rush of party-ready tunes. Commune310 Suika gathers tracks from a variety of producers, all leaning towards the up tempo and vaguely summery (which, I guess for me, means fast and/or sweaty). This ranges from the faded future-funk bounce of Mikazuki Bigwave to the packed-tight synthesizer gusts of HiRoSYO. Upbeat cuts fare the best —- personal highlights include Dog Noise’s spikey skip on “Silverhound” and what amounts to a nightcore take on this song that improves it so immensely as to make me question…a lot, via DJ JASRAC. The top cut, though, belongs to Loopcoda, whose “Kimi To Pool Disco” brims over with joy in its sliced-up vocal samples and slippery synth notes. Jam that one for as long as the warm weather lasts. Get it here, or listen below.

    Starship – Single by Happypills It’s the fluttery and fizzy edges of “Starship” that really stand out. Fukuoka artist Happypills mostly finds a middle ground between indie-pop and larger Japanese rock bands such as Galileo Galilei, Asian Kung-Fu Generation and maybe a little bit of Supercar. For the most part, “Starship” is a straightforward gallop,…

    [youtube=”http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHpbmE3RPoE”] The video for Osaka musician Oorutaichi’s “Moeru Himitsu” features various crudely filmed scenes of everyday life edited together in nearly nonsensical order, creating a weird clip where ordinary shots of orange juice and chickens take on a slightly disturbing appearance. It’s kinda like that one Charlotte Gainsbourg video without all the quirky indie bullshit…
