When no one is opening second thread I have to. We passed 500th posts I believe.

Breaking news: Fiona Sit released 'Read Me'
Single 叮叮車 is so jazzy, I love it so much.
Abin Fang released 'Regrets' and what I hear so far is great.

[Fair Wind]

Omfg, Abin. His first album was amazing so I'm excited to get this one.

Yoga Lin is also releasing something.

i listened Fiona Sit new album Read Me yesterday, and i like it. It is her typical style with sweet melodies and sweet beats.
i am a little bit disappointed it´s just a EP, not a full album.

first song Mei Siu Saat Yan Si Gin (Smile Murder Incident) is catchy and fast, reminds me her songs 886 or Canyon1234. And jazzy song Ding Ding Che (Ding Ding Train) reminds me music of Vicki Zhao Wei especially Vicki´s new album We Are All Great Directors is full of jazzy melodies

i was disappointed with being it EP, not an album too, but when the songs are amazing I forget that. I like every track on it.

yeah, Charlene Choi new EP is also out !!

[Fair Wind]

I can't get enough of Gigi Leung currently. I hope she releases a new Canto album soon (although I prefer Mando, she already released one this year).

[Far Away]

I love Elva Hsiao's new album. <3 Aside from Faye Wong, she's the Cpop artist that I've listened to the longest and I just love her music.

yeah, Charlene´s EP is quite good, but i expected a little bit more. anyway i still love her first solo album Lonely Me.
i haven´t listen miriam yeung and kary ng yet. but i hope kary´s new EP is fine, because i like previous albums by her.

i like upbeat songs from this album - especially Diamnod Candy song is so catchy with cute music video !
but i still love elva´s 1087 and 3 Faced albums more than Diamond Candy.

[Fair Wind]

3 Faced was a boring album imo. There were some ok songs, but the majority of them fell flat to their potential. 1087 is great and Diamond Candy is like the super synthed version of it. lol.

does anyone knows 徐佳瑩? just went to her autograph session, she's quite pretty but short

i'm not a fans of her, i was forced by my friend to attend the event, but surprisingly, she is good, she composed most of her songs

[Maemi]

Ok, I don't know about you guys, but I always get lost with chinese tags When I go to download some artist's best of or whatever, I get lost with so many albums lol I'm last.fm addict so when I want to get my tags right, there are like thousand versions of one song >.<;; They don't have singles, they just release albums and that way is pissing me off.

Lala. lol. Yeah she's cool, I love how she usually incorporates Taiwanese into her songs.

@Maemi, I never get lost lol. I usually just keep all my stuff in traditional chinese.

[prussian blue]

^you mean 台語? yah thats sounds different from the C-pop music industry she did sing that song though

will post pictures later, but phone caps, horrible quality

[PoetGirl]

i think its better to release only albums cuz i can afford album every now and then, i just cant keep up with jpop cuz of their singles! you buy only for a song or two. albums ftw.

[pommy48]

lol but then for the albums, you would want to buy all the different versions for the free goodies @_@

[maddy1111]

i have never bought two (or even more) versions of the same album
I am always just waiting for DVD version with MV

[Maemi]

Does China have a chart like Japan's Oricon?

[Fair Wind]

Mm, Landy Wen is releasing her new album, Dancing Queen on October 30th. The first single is a cover of Uhm Jung Hwa's 2008 hit, DISCO.
