Floppy

PROFILE

FLOPPY is a band consisting of Kobayashi Sharaku (The singer of metronome) and Hiromu Toda (The singer of Shinjuku Gewalt).
They make electronic music, which sounds a bit more like Shinjuku Gewalt than metronome.
They mainly use their machintoshes, but Toda also plays on a synthesizer.
To heighten the feeling of electronic game music, Sharaku sings in a modified Famicom Controller.

BIOGRAPHY

The birth of FLOPPY was sometime in the late summer/autumn of 2004. The line-up consists of Sharaku Kobayashi (Voice, Macintosh) and Hiromu Toda (Synthesizer, Macintosh), with Fukuda Fukusuke as support guitarist from time to time.

The band plays 'Asian chip pop' and sounds like a crossbreed between Shinjuku Gewalt and metronome.
On stage they have white THE BUGGLES (a band from the 80's) inspired shirts with a large F on it and futuristic looking sunglasses.

In January 2005 the band released the self-titled mini-album FLOPPY, consisting of 9 songs.
Later that year, they also released the maxi-single FLOPPY no suteki consisting of an additional 3 songs.

On December 24th, Christmas eve, they had their very first one-man show. On the same night they sold an untitled maxi-single, which contained 3 cover-songs.

FLOPPY's popularity has grown big throughout 2005, and it seems they are going steadily into the next year.
