Music of the Pochonbo Electronic Ensemble

Classified under:,
Before I got burnt out on the shittiness of indecipherable Japanese Rock, I was a huge nerd for Japanese music. During the early 00's I had a reasonable collection of Shibuya-kei as well as some Japnese noise rock. Sadly, a lot of the music sucked, and I ended up pawning a large portion of it in Victoria for the New Rock! The Strokes! The Vines! The Hives! Remember how long that lasted? Now, thanks to the powers of high speed internet, I've been dabbling in strange new music. The stuff that's sticking out in my brain right now is propadanda music from North Korea, in particular, the Pochonbo Electronic Ensemble. The music has an old school space age lounge vibe mixed with James Bond intro singing. It's otherworldly retro. Check it.
