| 3.0 good | Egarran | February 1st 21 |
Japanese francophile hippie tunes par excellence. *Chef's kiss*

I only added this to the database for an uniimportant list gimmick but it is super good actually. Warm, cute & quirky indie/chamber pop

It's full of ideas and has boundless energy, but it's a little twee for my taste. I think it will probably thrill someone more in tune with its cute meets kitchen sink aesthetic

Very pretty, and very lush psych/chamber/baroque pop that uses chimes, flutes, brass, and all sorts of orchestral instruments to embark the listener on an ever-flowing journey of French-inspired Japanese cutesiness. It's got that cozy vibe that always pleases me without ever wowing me.

Very nice. To be fair to the debut I had much better conditions for this one, but Okapi did feel far superior and more engaging, especially in the first few songs. I did phase out a bit about halfway, but some of the tracks still managed to bring me back. 7 because it was a bit too quirky in its first half (but the second is cool), 8 because it brings back the soft math rock influences a bit, 9 becuase it is nice and chill but also bcs its conclusion exemplifies what I find a bit less interesting in this. STylistically this is very similar to the debut: soft inidie folk with very varied instrumentation. The chimes reminded me of Takk a fair bit actually. 1 and 3 were perhaps my faves but I'd need to pay more attention in the second half of the record next time. 3.6

| 4.0 excellent | Gene Gol-Jonsson CONTRIBUTOR | February 10th 21 |
An unadulterated whimsy that only the fusion of Japanese and French chamber-comfy folk music can bring.
