New cover album from YMCK featuring 8-bit style covers of classic folk songs. Includes eight songs total (subject to change).
カヴァーブームに新旋風! 懐かしのフォークソングがYMCKの織り成す8bitサウンドによって現代に蘇る! 本作は"メッセージ"と"可愛らしさ"が詰め込まれた、他に類をみない極上カヴァー作!! 全8曲収録予定。
YMCK成立於2003年5月，被稱日本Electro Pop救世主的YMCK，，配樂全部為復古的8-bit音樂,就是紅白機上那種遊戲音樂，加上女童聲，一種清新的感覺。，他們的音樂令人聯想到阪本龍一的 YMO時期，或者電子遊戲《超級瑪力》的背景音樂，懷舊復古的電音、可愛的旋律、編曲者扎實的爵士樂底子、碰撞出一種全新感覺的流行氣質，溫暖又時尚”
感覺很童趣的一張專輯
想起小時候黑白遊戲機，gameboy
來自澀穀電音小廠牌的electro pop獨立樂隊，是一支女子遊戲機電音indies團，由女主唱Midori、詞曲兼製作Yokemura、鍵盤手Nakamura三人組成。
這張專輯編曲方面確實很優秀，活潑且有趣！
聽完專輯裡的其餘歌曲，也許是期望高了
我覺得曲與唱，不太和諧..
我倒沉醉於有趣的8bit曲子裡..

“New cover album from YMCK featuring 8-bit style covers of classic folk songs.
As its subtitle suggests, “Songbook -Songs Before 8bit-” sees “chiptune” flag-bearers YMCK spread their Nintendoesque love all over a clutch of songs from 1971 to 1982, a time when “Mario Bros.” was still a glimmer in Shigeru Miyamoto’s eye — and many of them are as memorable as the heroic Italian plumber’s own theme tune.
The idea to cover classics in a chiptune style, which uses synth plug-in software to approximate the sounds of Nintendo’s 1983 Famicom games console, pays off in several ways: It shows the versatility of originals such as Yosui Inoue’s anthemic “Yume no Nakae” and Takuro Yoshida’s folksy “Ningen Nante”; it highlights the depth of musicality and emotion YMCK are able to wring from their homemade MIDI plug-in, which allows for layered and listenable music made for more than simply running, jumping and necking magic mushrooms; and it gives the band the chance to explore melancholy vibes they might usually avoid, such as on “Kasa ga Nai” (also by Inoue).”
