Out now from Crue-L Records is a first album by The Beauty (MySpace, Bandcamp), solo project of Yuji Oda. While described as contemporary electro-pop, the official blurb also mentions a hallucinating list of influential genres: gothic, shoe gaze, balearic, dark wave, reverb electro, nerd funk, leftfield indie dance, polaroid pop..?! I loved the track "Fifth Regret" from recent label compilation "Crue-L Café", and this is definitely worth checking!
