Music Corner Week 125: Salmon Pinknows

Born from the mind of freelancer music designer MIZ-C, the Salmon Pinknows is his solo-music project that started in March of 2021. They have a wide range of music, being a fusion of 80s city pop, dance music, soul music from around the world, and modern Japanese rock. The refreshing cutting guitar, the technical lead guitar, the moving bass, and the drums that bring them all together are exquisite. Sticking to the theme of wanting listeners to experience the joy of “musical instruments and bands,” with a new birth of sounds, it will have everyone jiving to the compositions throughout.

One of things that I absolutely love about MIZ-C with this project is that he just oozes style throughout all his tracks. Whether it be the more guitar-heavy compositions of “1056194”, the more pop-rock feel of “Meteor is Shining” and “I am a city popper”,  or the bass tones of “Keep Running To The End”, the Salmon Pinknows project shows a wide array of compositions that is for everyone.

Currently, the Salmon Pinknows project has two EPs (both in 2021), 14 singles, and three albums. You can also request work from him on his webpage (Japanese Only). Be sure to check out their official website and Twitter, along with the music video for “I am a city popper” below!
