Negicco has released a new single PV called “Anata to Pop with You!”
The video is not very flashy, but the song is really good and it has my favorite color in it.
“Anata to Pop with You!” will hit the stores on June 20 and you can get it at Tower records and i believe you can also order it through HMV.
In preparations for their new release, the highly popular, fast rising, idol group BABYMETAL have entered into a deal with Tower Records.
The collaboration is called “NO MUSIC, NO IDOL?”
As part of this campaign these limited edition posters shown below are being handed out on a first come first get situation.
BABYMETAL will also be performing at select Tower Record stages in July and will see the addition of a DJ.
To attend the live, you must have the ticket that comes in their July 4 new release.
So what do you think about the posters, they really look like a different group than before?
Idoling!!! will be releasing their new singles One up!!! and Ichigo Gyuunyuu on August 8. It's a double a-side. A live performance of One up!!! can be seen here. This is the first performance with the new generation members.Maybe they'll release the PV on their official channel?
I really like One up!!! I'm loving all of the lines Naohi is getting.
I was actually expecting Idoling!!! to do a PV containing bikini's or something, since it's summer, but I'm so glad they didn't because that would have been kind of boring, since they've already done that before.
What are one DJ + Three Idols =? .Answer- RHYMEBERRY.
RHYMEBERRY is an idol unit that I’ve had an eye on for some time now to present on Pure Idol Heart.
RHYMEBERRY are members of the idol group usa☆usa Shoujo Club and as a group they are more popular than their main group.
Together under the names MC-HIME,MC-YUKA,MC-MIRAI and DJ-HIKARU ,RHYMEBERRY have created a sound and style all their own.
RHYMEBERRY by the way looks at their fan base as being their big brother and have several songs related to looking up to big brother.
As you can imagine by the member names and group name this is not your traditional idol group, they are a Rhyming idol group and an enjoyable one to listen to as well.
After being active for some time now the group is releasing a single on July 4 titled HEY! BROTHER.
The only thing bad about this is usa☆usa Shoujo Club has a High School graduation rule , meaning once their idols reach High School she has to graduate and if she wants to continue being an idol , she drifts off to a new place to call home.
As for their main unit, you can find a 100+ videos on their YouTube Page
The other a-side is PUSH, which was released earlier andthe bside is mitemite☆kochichi. Sensou means war, so I expected something more energetic, however, PUSH and mitemite☆kochichi are already energetic, so this kind of calms everything down.
A new Idol group out of Sapporo that is owned by “Idol Café Sapporo” making them a café idol group. They have just released their debut mini album with five songs.
The café`s manager serves as the groups manager and they perform regularly at the café and around Sapporo.
The members along with their manager created their own dance routines giving it that traditional café idol style.
The name WeHigh by the way stands for “We aim to reach high as idols”.
They are selling their debut 1,000 yen CD at their lives and domestically though their web site.
As a group they are pretty good and have growth potential.
ANGE♥LOID is a cute little Indie Idol unit that sings mostly cover songs from anime and other idols, with some originals thrown in.
ANGE♥LOID is typical of Indie Idols, they were either overlooked by a large agency or simply like the freedom the Indies offer.
The best way to look at an Indie idol is that they slipped through the hands of a big house to become your own special treasure.
ANGE♥LOID is no different from any other Indie, strong points, weak points in this case it`s dancing, but with a loyal fan base supporting their special treasure.
One thing to keep in mind, Indie Idol companies tend to be small agencies with less than 20 people employed and often that includes the idols. Some groups represent themselves, so the level of training will vary based on each group and the resources the company can afford.
ANGE♥LOID is a group to keep a watch on as they improve a little each live.
Fast rising idol group Cheeky Parade , fresh off selling 5,000 copies of their Indie single debut, made their debut TV appearance the other night.
The buzz around this group is growing, with a major debut single coming next they have a shot of being very good, very fast.
Wotas these days are looking for fresh faced idols who are just starting their careers and who have a bit of spark and attitude .
The same old cookie cutter idol groups is not going to cut it anymore. With Indie groups becoming more creative and very fan friendly with stage diving and more ,look for more and more groups rising up like Cheeky Parade and following the playbook of being loud ,attitude changing ,wota loving, off the wall and a bit out of control idols.
The birth of the next Idol genre era is here.
The TV spot was removed after posting so i added this ,
Alice Project the company that Alice Juban work for have just debut their 9th group OZ
Full title is The Wonderful Alice of OZ
As you can guess from the name it`s a group based on the Wizard of OZ story.
As there is only a short 2-minute video, i thought that i`d give you a profile post.
It's quite different from the mature style we've been hearing, which is a good thing because variety is the key.
The electronic sounds make it a little too busy at times, but it's overall a new sound for them.
I hope the PV is creative and playful!
With Fairies master dancing, I wonder how the dance will be coordinated since this sounds really hard to coordinate to.
