AIJO CYCLING 11. ORANGE DREAM AN CAFE and Maru Music and An Cafe are proud to announce the release GOKU-TAMA ROCK CAFE. This is the latest album from the Harajuku-kei band AN CAFE. Their name comes from the shortened version of the word Antique Café. Harajuku-kei is a sub-genre of the Visual-kei scene, the the distinction being the emphases on the colorful playful fashion of the famous Harajuku shopping area of Tokyo. AN CAFE is a Japanese Visual-kei rock band featuring the talents of miku (vocals), takuya (guitar), kanon (bass), yu-ki (keyboard) and teruki (drums). The band was formed in 2003 by original members miku, kanon, and bou, soon to be followed by teruki a few months later. When Bou left the band in April 2007 to pursue a solo career, they welcomed new members, takuya and yu-ki, thus becoming a quintet. AN CAFE is extremely popular with the teenage crowd. One might say it's because of their "larger than life" lyrics and an energy that infects its audience with a dancing fever. Their songs have a wide appeal to all audiences including J-pop fans and have the potential to reach those who are not familiar with foreign music, not to mention Visual-kei fanatics. AN CAFE are known for their amazing live shows, where each member gets to express their unique individual personalities. Maru Music is the leading media company, bringing the highest quality, Visual-kei, Jrock and Jpop to North America. Based in Los Angeles, Maru Music is dedicated to building a community around our common love of Jrock. Maru Music looks after every aspect of an artists connection to their fans.

CD ReviewsNYAPPY! Eiji Ribera | 03/12/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "An Cafe is the best! Can't believe I found this album for $12 instead of $55. Those import costs are killer sometimes. But this album is great, Kakusei Heroism, Ryusei Rocket and Cherry Saku Yuuki are the best songs on there. But overall I can listen to this CD from beginning to end. NYAPPY!!" GOKU-TAMA ROCK CAFE pink spider | 01/12/2010 (5 out of 5 stars) "This was the 1st An Cafe CD I bought and I've been hooked since. Like the other An Cafe albums this one is above all, fun. It's hard not to be happy listening to this. My favorite song is S*B*Y, with CHERRY SAKU YUUKI and KAKUSEI HEROISM close behind. I'm thinking this is also the first album without the original guitarist Bou and with Takuya and Yuuki. All of the songs are upbeat and fun, with the possible exception of ORANGE DREAM which feels a little melancholy to me. My only regret is not getting a copy with videos. I would also suggest HARAJUKU DANCE ROCK, BB PARALLEL WORLD,& MAGNYA CARTA. If you like An Cafe, Jpop, or Visual Kei you would probably enjoy this album."
