perfect young lady releases best album “BEST 2020-2023”

Perfect young lady, a home recording musician active mainly in Tokyo, will release her best album “BEST 2020-2023” on Wednesday, May 22nd.

Since releasing the cassette in 2021, the CD-Rs containing new songs that have been released regularly have sold out immediately every time. She is also a perfect young lady who has been attracting attention both domestically and internationally, with “PYL DEMO AND…” selected as the best album of the year by the London-based trio KERO KERO BONITO. This work has a total of 21 songs, and the recording time is 72 minutes, which is the limit of the CD capacity. New vocals have been recorded for most of the songs.

This work will be pre-sold at the event “ROLLIN'” to be held at Red Cloth in Shinjuku, Tokyo on Saturday, May 18th.

[Aran pillbox (anal techno) comment]

When the self-proclaimed perfect young lady started releasing music on SoundCloud in 2020, that’s all we knew about her.

I didn’t even know what kind of person he was, or whether he was alone or in a group. However, an account that was releasing incredibly good songs one after another suddenly appeared, and everyone who heard the songs wondered who the hell this guy was.

Strange pop that mixes Japanese new wave and Shibuya style. Heartbreaking lyrics set on a catchy melody. Kitschy artwork that looks like a human being. Colored by these, pop songs that made people cry profusely were being created in this world one after another. What was surprising was the speed at which it was announced.

This album is considered a best-of album, so it contains 21 songs, but there are probably more than three times that number, and there are many great songs even among the songs that were not included. That excitement when dozens of famous songs are released in just a few years. In short, the appearance of PYL was a big deal!

What I later found out was that he had made it all by himself, recording it at home. Demo is about completing songwriting and composition in one night. I’ve just started recording at home, so I’m just trying my hand at it. This is how PYL’s unique groove was created.

PYL’s unique worldview was also very appealing. PYL will not descend into contrarianism or subservient self-expression. It’s best if it’s just fun and straight forward. As if to say, he strings the words together. Many people have forgotten this anti-snobbery attitude or don’t have it in the first place. However, if you look closely, the world is truly rich. Besides, it’s best if it’s just fun and straightforward.

The perfect young woman who reads Human Crossroads in the hospital waiting room, pukes in the car, and doesn’t understand sarcasm, celebrates you by serving never-cooked chicken with herbs and lighting a lamp with a lemon battery. right.

Anyway, there’s only one thing I can say. There is no one more fun to talk to than PYL! about it.
