Exploding Head Movies Episode August 26, 2024
XHM #706 - "Escape to paradise & prosperity" (2024 August 26)
7:01pm - 8:59pm
Appropriate for the end of summer, gak finally tackles a long-promised episode devoted to the 1980s Japanese genre known as city pop. The entire playlist should be considered ultrasmooth with acts clearly inspired by this resurrected & imported style. Perfect for driving away from the city and to the beach.
Ichi, ni, san, yon, go!
