TOWNTONE-新着情報-2007.12.14.

イタリアの有力レビューサイト：Genovatune.net にて、ミセスタナカ / ライムライト のレビューが掲載されました！レビューを書いてくれたマルコ(すごい親切)に英訳してもらいましたので、お時間がある時にでもゼヒ！Belly とか Tanya Donnelly など、かなり懐かしい名前が出ていて、ナルホドね～と思っていたら、Kaori Mochida ってクレジットが。この人って、いわゆるELTって呼ばれている人ですよね？？レビュー自体はかなり好意的な内容だと思います。"JPOP と インディー のブレンドでたまにノイジー"ってのは、まさに僕が意識してミックスしていた事なのですが、それがイタリアンにも伝わっていて、かなり嬉しいです。

From a housewife inconspicuous you never heard an album, however modest, shines with an undeniable and sparkling luster. When you feel imprisoned in the grinding of seemingly endless days, this is the music that makes you go forward.

This brief note accompanying Lime Light, the debut of Mrs.. Tanaka, sums up well the spirit of the album. The music Akiko Tanaka is a heterogeneous mixture of sounds that mix and alternate between them and that are slowly discover after listening audience. A work in which jpop and indie blend instinctively in a series of musical pictures that can be mild, even when things get "noisy".

The CD series sees eight tracks and three remixes (courtesy of Himuro) in a professional production that besides the CD and the booklet containing the text (in Japanese with translation into English) also offers a bonus DVD in which three different filmmakers offer through their video a visual accompaniment to the three remixes.

This is a proposal based on an Indie melodic and intimate, alternating sounds of acoustic style Belly and electronic melodies that recall to the side more power and less rarefatto of Salyu, with a voice that, in part for the style and partly for the stamp, seems to face as an interesting cross between the sophisticated interpretations of Kaori Mochida and those of Tanya Donnelly.

But the value's not exhausted in a good production can mix a variety of differences between their dosandoli enough to get a job that much more enjoyable. The originality of Mrs.. Tanaka comes rather from its ability to become itself, with his voice and his interpretation, fil rouge that binds the different pieces such an dragging them into another. Mrs.. Tanaka fits between those figures with a personal guarantee that with great naturalness, simply through its interpretive style, a deep drive to sound an album, even when it ends with the move through fields and sounds not close to each other.

Overall, the album moves as a fire display that starting dall'iniziale Sleepy, where the voice is usually accompanied only by guitar and bass, grows continuously through the acceleration of the drum machine beat and layers of guitar ever more power, until you get to explode in Circles and then go to weakening in the title track. And in a similar overview, the remix terminating the tracklist are taking their place the features that echo remains in when the show is over: something that, while not the explosion part fireworks, drift and complete.
