ciao!

i had flown to shanghai with a connection in toronto. unfortunately, the toronto-shanghai flight was delayed by six hours. so i had some time to kill at the airport.

at one of the shops, there was a small music section. i saw tiga's latest "ciao!". i had seen his mock interview (part 1, part 2) a couple of weeks ago, found it funny, and had been meaning to check out the new album. so i bought it there.

i had loved his debut full length. this second album is a bit 'meh' in comparison. the so-called lyrics are laughable. there are a few fun tracks, such as "beep beep beep" and "shoes", but the rest is nothing groundbreaking.

summer vacation

summer vacation has just started. today, i passed by hmv and archambault. a couple of purchases.

tiga - sexor
i've been in a bit of an electronica mood lately, so i headed to hmv looking for tiga's newest release. i had only heard one song from the album, but i liked it enough to get the disc. turns out, it's really good! fun, dance, party music. it reminds me of how much i used to love dance music, back when i started to seriously listen to music, when i was in grade 5.

frou frou - details
while browsing the electronica section of the store, i saw frou frou's release. i got it too. the music is light and calming. the singer has such a nice voice. i can't wait to see imogen heap live, at the end of the month.

jean leloup - l'amour est sans pitié
jean leloup - le dôme
i really like jean leloup's last studio album "la vallée des réputations". it suck that i found out about this singer just not long before he retired. i guess i won't get a chance to see him live. i found these two older releases of his, on special at archambault. i listened to them a couple of times. it's so different from his later stuff. his early material is more "wtf?!" i'll listen to it some more; it'll grow on me, i'm sure.
