Shuta Hasunuma - Pop Ooga

O segundo álbum do japonês Shuta Hasunuma, já tem nome e data marcada para o seu lançamento. Wannapunch! verá a luz no primeiro dia de 2010. Enquanto ele não chega, deixo por aqui o seu álbum de estreia, Pop Ooga (2008). Shuta Hasunuma presenteia-nos com pop glicht de primeira. Melodias delicadas, toques de guitarra e de piano, vozes ocasionais e electrónicas a apoiar. Daqui, o seguinte:

"Glitch-pop maestro Shuta Hasunuma works some serious magic into these tracks. Seldom do you encounter such impeccable, well judged songsmithery that's been so wantonly decimated by its author. Wonderfully delicate acoustic balladry gets sliced up and perforated with digital ruptures and pinhole sized beats, still somehow preserving a firm grasp on melodic integrity - and even finding space for some vocals within the fractured mix. 'Triooo' makes for an especially good case study of Shuta's skillful production, carving up jazzily arranged strings, tuned percussion and piano over a frantic five-minute chamber pop song. Comparisons to artists on labels like Flau, Spekk, Noble and the like would be an obvious port of call, but you could equally mention Shuta's work in the same breath as people like Max Tundra, or maybe even Sam Prekop."
