The Japanese Popstars only parallel with rock music is that they'd built up a sizable live following before releasing their first major single, some might even say cultish, with their is big room, cool electronic music built for festivals and stadiums. Over the past eight months the band have remix the likes Beyonce, The Ting Tings, Shinichi Osawa, Pete Tong, The Music and Groove Armada, as well as taking their energy fuelled live show to many major clubs and festivals around the world!
