源屋 (Minamotoya) - MINAMOTRANCE CORE i7 [2012]

genres: j-core, happy hardcore, trance

find: spotify, apple music, youtube etc

although minamotoya has some amazing songs, his albums tend to be less listenable. this one is my second favorite of his, and it’s definitely grown on me over time.

what i like about is it that it’s pretty different for him. it opens up with a brostep intro track which carries its genre over into the next song, Broken Disc, although not as intensely. It’s one of the best songs on the album and probably the most unique one. it has a great melody and i love the scratches. Another Day is my favorite song on the album - i’ve been listening to it a lot lately. the melody is very typical minamotoya but it still sticks with me. the piano and vocal samples are nice, and i love the bass, which is more characteristic of hard bass than j-core. overall there are definitely some bangers on this album.

there aren’t any bad songs on this album, which is nice. the remixes aren’t horrible (but i still skip them because i hate remixes at the end of albums).

REDALiCE x 源屋 (Minamotoya) - SUGURASHI [2006]

genres: happy hardcore, freeform hardcore

find: doujinstyle, youtube

another solid early redalice/minamotoya release. AirFort (JP Hardcore Mix) is easily one of minamotoya’s best songs.

REDALiCE x 源屋 (Minamotoya) - Heart Full Beat! -ハートフルビート！-

genres: happy hardcore, makina

heavily underrated/unknown split by redalice and minamotoya, released on ALiCE'S EMOTiON in 2007.
