Music Corner Week 124: Raisan

Raisan is a newly formed pop rock band consisting of the vocalist/singer-songwriter CLR, Bansan on Guitar, Hi on Guitarist, Kasugayama on Bass, and foot vinegar(Dr) on Drums. Raisan brings a unique flavor to their music with all members having been in/currently are in bands. From the first listen, you get a funky fresh pop rock sound with the experience and knowledge of music. CLR’s vocals bring out the best in each member as each knows how to match her vocal style and vice versa. Their musical style pulls the audience in with their unique composition, CLR’s vocals, and their catchy lyrics.

Members:

CLR: Vocals (Saya of Lalaland)

Bansan: Guitar (Enon Kawatani of indigo la end, Gesu no Kiwami Otome, and Genie High)

Hi: Guitar (Satoshi Kinoshita)

Kasugayama: Bass (Kyujitsu Kacho of DADARAY and Gesu no Kiwami Otome)

foot vinegar(Dr): Drums (GOTO of DALLJUB STEP CLUB)

Raisan showcases how they know how to compose and capture audiences with tracks such as “TRUMAN”, “NO SWEAT”, and “Guro” with their fun compositions that showcase CLR’s vocal talent. “TRUMAN” delivers a upbeat track that keeps you entertained throughout the listen, as the beat gives off a jazzy rock vibe, catchy chorus, and steady vocals. “Guro” brings a different vibe with CLR’s use of rap to start off, and is more heavy on the guitar, making for an interesting mix before jumping into the vocals for the chorus. “NO SWEAT” goes back to a more pop-funk sound that is more vocal heavy. Raisan shows that each member is familiar with each others talents and brings out the best in each other; the track “Bye Bye’ shows this, as it has the perfect flow between guitar, bass, and CLR’s vocals; all meshing together with the perfect melody.

Currently, Raisan has one digital album, WHOOPEE (2023), and five digital singles (2021 - 2022) with two of them being demo versions. Check out their official website, Twitter, Instagram, and latest music video for “TRUMAN” below!
