Tenkiame "So Sad About Us" (Independent)

Tokyo's Azusa Suga is a busy man. For the past four years he has been managing online label Canata Records, recorded woozy electronic pop under the name Shortcake Collage Tape and played in indie-pop band For Tracy Hyde, which has garnered some mainstream attention that has resulted in opportunities to open for bigger bands.

As Suga tries to push For Tracy Hyde into the spotlight, he has also started up a new group called Tenkiame, who has just released the EP "So Sad About Us." The project seems to be Suga's chance to revel in the kind of fuzzy, unhinged sounds that For Tracy Hyde can't indulge in if it wants to maintain its current momentum.
