HALCALI held two Halloween themed concerts this past weekend, one at an event in Sapporo on the 28th and one on the 29th in Shibuya. The Shibuya live is particularly notable because it was an all night club event, which the girls have done from time-to-time, promoting their music to the more trendy subculture of Japan. The girls held the event along with long-time friends: Nakata Yasutaka (of capsule; the producer of Perfume), DJ ILMARI (of RIP SLYME & TERIYAKI BOYZ),YAPAN a.k.a. Yosuke Hiroyama (of RYUKYUDISCO) and others.
It’s good to see the girls continuing to be active with some of their music genres’ most popular acts (Nakata, Ilmari). HALCALI always has good people watching over them, at least.
YUCALI tweeted about the Shibuya event, bursting with happiness, saying that she and HALCA even sang one more song than they intended. A friend of mine went and reported that the even was so packed, he was afraid he wouldn’t get in.
And here’s the video of the new song 今日の私はキゲンがいい “Kyou no Watashi wa KIGEN ga Ii; I’m Feelin’ Good Today!” Poor quality and a good portion of the beginning was cut out because of the radio DJ, but it’s better than nothing.
Enjoy!

Hmmm I dig it from what I hear. Very reminiscent of their TOKYO CONNECTIONS stuff. It’s clear they are going in a more mellow direction. I can’t wait to hear the full version. If I could buy it from here I totally would.
