Lily Chou-chou

| Anyone here ever heard the album 'Kokyu' by 'Lily Chou-chou'?
I stumbled upon it a few years ago, and I've been hooked, probably my favorite album ever.
Apparently, the artist's some fictional pop star from some Japanese movie / novel / BBS thing?
Anyway, it's a great album, and I haven't ever heard anything else like it. 'Glide' is my favorite track.


| I have! I found out about Lily Chou-chou back in college when a guy recommended me to watch this movie. Can't remember the name but I still listen to some of the tracks from the movie to this day. Arabesque is my favorite still. Great for days where I want to zone out and float in the song's aether. If you're looking for similar artist, Frou Frou's Let Go and Instantane by Paradis are tracks that give me that same airy vibe but more upbeat.


| I'm just going through my torrent source, but it looks like a couple singles and that one album are all that came from the project... Up until a single song was released a decade later: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTlH-4tt9Vo&ab_channel=LilyChouChou2000

The real artist is Salyu. Can't speak for how similar her work under that name is to Lily Chou-Chou, but probably worth looking into all the same. At least 7 more albums waiting for you.


| All About Lily Chu-chou is a fucked up movie by director Shunji Iwai. The music was pretty good if I remember. I didn't know the group was really making albums though, that's pretty cool.
