On June 10, Namie Amuro is set to release her new album, “_genic.” Today, she released the short music video for the album’s 4th track, “Birthday.” “Birthday” is a sugary, celebratory pop song. The music video was shot on a sound stage, with different sets being utilized at different times to create different scenery. The music video uses a lot of pastel colors, with an emphasis on pink, to display the fun, girly aspects of the song. The music video for “Birthday” even displays a bit of Namie’s signature dancing. Check it out after the jump!

DREAM BOY is an independent hip hop label founded in 2012 by rapper KEN THE 390. Besides him, DREAM BOY’s roster includes KLOOZ, KOPERU, and YURIKA. Earlier this year, they added another rapper to their camp, ACE COOL. ACE COOL is originally from Hiroshima. He started his music career there in 2010. He released his first mixtape, “THE RATS”, in 2012. In 2013, he moved to Tokyo and released another mixtape, “YOU OUGHT LOOK OUT.” This all lead to him signing to DREAM BOY. He recently released his first music video on the label, “MOUNTAINEER.” There is no word on when this song will be released for purchase. “MOUNTAINEER” was produced by ANNE Beats and the video was created by HAVIT ART STUDIO.

Following up on their major debut earlier in the year, up and coming rock trio LAMP IN TERREN are going to be releasing their first full album “LIFE PROBE” this summer on July 1st.  Well ahead of this date, the band have revealed the full video for the record’s lead track “Void” on their label’s official Youtube channel.

The refreshing mid-tempo song is set to shots of the group performing atop the roof of a building located amidst a city’s wharves; uniquely, all of the overhead camerawork was done specifically by drone.  “Void” is slated to be used as the theme song for the movie “Fufu Fufu Nikki”, which will hit Japanese theaters at the end of this month on May 30th.

Feel free to take a look at the full PV for “Void”, which will be located just below the jump, and expect further updates on “LIFE PROBE” as we draw closer to its release date.
