This Blog is about music that I (the Author) enjoy and doesn't not reflect on other bands. I'm sure there are other awesome jrock and jpop bands out there, I just haven't heard them yet. If there's a band you really want me to hear, then leave a message!

Orange Range : オレンジレンジ : おれんじれんじ



Formed in Okinawa in 2001, Orange Range is known as a "mixture hip-hop" band. A sextet, the band comprises Ryo (low range vocals), Hiroki (mid range vocals), Yamato (high range vocals), Naoto (guitar), Yoh (bass), and Katchan (drums), all acquaintances since childhood, and plays tight, melodic tunes overlaid with the rap of the group's three MCs. The band gigged aggressively from its inception, playing over 70 gigs a year in tiny Okinawa alone, during which time the members honed the chops that would eventually help win them a major label contract.
