METROTRONICS

The title of the new Clazziquai Project album.
** Clazziquai?? **

And I just got it in the mail!

As some of you may know, Clazziquai's new electronica/house tracks from Metrotronics have been recently featured on DJ MAX portable Clazziquai Edition (duh!)
This is where I first listened to this very unique band, and got interested in their music.
The album was made hand in hand with the people at Pentavision and PM Studios for a release of the game and album to be around the same time.
The CD / DVD combo is quite a little package, and I knew nothing of what I was expecting besides the CD for the item description was all in Korean on the site I got it from.

First off the song list is:
1. Electronics
2. Flea
3. Beat in Love
4. Color
5. Night Stage
6. Creator
7. Beautiful Stage (sliced cheese remix)
8. Beat in Love (Yasutaka Nakata [capsule] remix)

and the DVD features music videos such as:
1. Electronics
2. Flea
3. Beat in Love
4. Color
5. Night Stage
6. Creator
7. Come to me
8. Freedom

as well as Flea + Beat in Love director commentary and M/V production
+ DJ MAX Promotional Video

The whole thing comes in this rather odd looking CD Case, which my roommate quickly found out was called a "Super Jewel Box King" and has the ability to hold 2 CDs and a rather large booklet / inserts.
Which is a good thing... for it has all of that!
* DJ MAX Clazziquai Edition/Technika promotional pamphlet
* Full color 15 page Clazziquai booklet
* Clazziquai Metrotronics sticker sheet
* Clazziquai Project discography ad
* 2 disc case



The DVD is wonderful looking as well!




So in conclusion, I really recommend this album. It did not cost that much to import and from what I can see, it is well worth it.
Clazziquai Project's unique music is a good break from the hardcore scene, and I'm glad I bothered to pick up this album.

You can too. Just search it on www.yesasia.com (I would link, but they are currently having site problems)
