JAPANESE POP GROUND ZERO
Brendan Constantine | 05/09/2010
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Melon's Shinjuku Blade Runner is a thrilling and diverse collection of songs by a seminal team of Japanese artists. Toshio Nakanishi and Chica Sato, veterans of the legendary New Wave group The Plastics, began recording under the name Melon in 1982. Though the project was originally conceived as a means of exploring themes beyond the palette of New Wave, in many ways Melon represented a continuation of their previous efforts. Indeed, in a few instances, the duo recycled lyrics and melodies from older Plastics songs and revived them with elements of funk and jazz.



The music of Shinjuku Blade Runner is in constant flux and no single sensibility pervades. This may confuse some listeners, but as a first experience of these talented artists (not to mention the rest of the band!!!), it is a perfect introduction. Check it out! It's worth the risk!"
