My problem with NEXT LEVEL is that Ayu got it right with the visuals but she didn't follow through with the music, she provided all the necessary "Ayu staples" that fans expect, I wish she would have been brave enough to go all the way with it but I guess it was just another issue of working on singles and then the album tracks follow and they don't necessary always work together. And songs like Energize, Identity and Love 'n' Hate are badly produced, they sound like Ayu songs arranged into a more "electro" style when she really should have been taking/making electro songs and then putting an Ayu twist on them if that makes sense.
