POCKET MUSIC

Media coverage reviews, etc.

Since this is their first original album in three years since their previous album, Melodies, I expected it to be more flashy, but it's surprisingly subdued. However, the more you listen to it, the more you like it. Although it makes full use of synths, it doesn't sound like a techno sound. -- Contents (from "CD Journal" database)

Amazon review

The 1986 album ``POCKET MUSIC'' was re-released in 1991 with all new remixes, including the unreleased song <11> (written in 1985) about wanting to be healed by a lover. This reissue is a lighthearted depiction of the lively scenery of a rainy Saturday night in <1> (ending theme for Fuji TV's ``Oretachi Hyokinzoku''), and features a refreshing Honda ``Integra'' sound with saxophone tones and a clear chorus. In addition to the two singles, campaign song <10>, there is a sound full of kindness, including medium number <6>, which sings with full of emotion over a dramatic synthesizer melody, expressing anxiety and worries about the future.
