I remember when kuki started I sort of rolled my eyes and thought to myself- again?! I do love the new songs, though. Papaye Mango is total bleh but that's not her original, anyway. great review and I agree with most of it!

Your development about the feel of the album as imagery in the mind produced from the music really undermines yourself when you state that they are old or previous releases. I listened to this at 3am in the morning siting in bed with my eyes closed. It was bliss..."sonicly" entertaining. I won't say that this is the most amazing thing in music, but it was certainly a great 50minutes of enjoyment. I really enjoy jazz in various forms as well as the use of more electronically infused elements. You do have your points but as we thought Otona was a maturing of style, Heisei Fuuzoku certainly extents further in that matter and makes Shiina more reachable to a older audience, while hopefully introducing her younger fan base to music that has lost a lot of influence in our generation. Great musicians will always go back to the great stuff! I have to agree.

Im absolutely positive there'll be people who'll listen to this album who havent heard any of SR or TJ's previous work. The fact that you include biased for the remade tracks serves as knowledge not needed. You have to listen to the songs as they are... even if they're remakes, or just copies off Baishou Ecstasy, they themselves are not only fabulous songs, but they work as a whole in the flow of the album, and probably the movie. These tracks should probably be considered (especially when revieweing), as new. You base your opinion off the other versions of the songs, and when reviewing an album, you should never base them off other versions, as it's like comparing one song to a completely different song. Im not disagreeing with you about using the Baishou Ecstasy versions etc for the album, because I was a tad disappointed, but when you review in the manner presented, you have to put that aside and think of them as songs you havent heard before.
