As mentioned last night, I've got things to do later on today and with another threat of major snow on the way, I figured that I will get the usual Urban Contemporary Friday stint done a little earlier than scheduled. I already got three of them out of the way last night.
With the inclusion of the works of many a Japanese fusion band over the year, I realized that the last time I'd posted something by Casiopea（カシオペア）was back in late January...almost a year later. Time to rectify!
Not sure why Casiopea titled this song "Chandelier" aside from the observation that one of the keyboards used here may represent the crystalline pieces of the hanging light/work of art. But in any case, it's a fun instrumental City Pop piece by Casiopea leader Issei Noro（野呂一生）which gallops at a fine pace as I get images of tripping the light fantastic down a major Tokyo street. "Chandelier" was the final track on the band's December 1982 8th album "4×4 FOUR BY FOUR" which was a fairly short LP at only six tracks.
This is great music for a stroll or leisurely ride. I am not sure how it would work as BGM for a study session; it seems a little too involved for one to be able to focus on study or reading.
ReplyDeleteHello, Brian. Depending on your mood and genre, it could work although the quieter stuff is also fine.
