YMCK are back this month with a 6th album, and this time the theme is "Family Dancing"! Of course this lets us hope for some of the best 8-bit dance music ever! This comes a year and a half after album "Family Days" (2013), once again on De De Mouse's not records label. The song "Disko Kitsch" is a YMCK remix of Thailand band Cindy Seui, with Midori's vocals.
Amazon gives away an original YMCK promo bookmark (while supplies last). Those in Japan can buy at Village Vanguard to get a promo badge.
Check out the trailer clip below, and the official release page. There are also two special edits that can be heard at WeeklyTreats.net! While at it also check out recent digital single "Tokyo Upside Down" (2014).
A release party will be held at Shibuya WWW on Sunday July 12! Meanwhile YMCK can be seen live on June 20 at Shinjuku Loft.
