Genki Rockets is the creation of Tetsuya Mizuguchi and Kenji Tamai. It is a concept band, centered around vocalist Lumi, an eighteen year-old living in the year 2023 (born 11 September 2019 on the International Space Station). Lumi has a desire to visit Earth, a place she’s never been, and this is reflected in the band’s lyrics. The vocals for Lumi come from two people: Rachael Rhodes and Nami Miyahara. The former provides her visual appearance, both on CD releases, music videos, and in concerts where the band uses large-screen projection, along with costumed DJ’s to hide their identities.
The album bleeds happy sunshine and rainbows; it’s that kind of J-Pop. But its synth melodies are infectuous and its too easy to leave this album on repeat longer than you anticipated. If you liked the music of _Lumines_ and _Child of Eden_ then you’re going to like what you find here—and not by coincidence. ::wink::
Enjoy everyone!
(Still look forward those albums Abunja. Hoping this isn’t another Melting Holidays thing….)
