Humor bursting with electro-funk experimentalism
Melon releases a 12-inch that records the happy encounter between Japanese and electronics.
As the title "Serious Japanese" suggests, this album attempts a musical encounter between East and West. The sounds created by synthesizers and drum machines embody the experimental spirit of the mid-1980s, coexisting with humor and forward-thinking. It is a record of cross-cultural musical experimentation that was ahead of its time.
