Twelve-member female idol group Niji No Conquistador dropped two brand new music videos for their new single coming out July 10 titled “Ai wo Kokoro ni Summer to Oshieyo”. The first music video is titled “Waiting Wedding”, a cute little clip wherein the viewer gets to see everyone dancing around in different types of wedding dresses. The second, “ジャポニジフェス” (“Japonifisu”), features all of the girls kimono-clad and having fun at a festival.

“Ai wo Kokoro ni Summer to Oshieyo” will feature a staggering eight editions, one of which a standard edition and the rest limited editions. The standard edition will include both a CD and DVD and depict the entire group on the cover. Six of the seven limited editions will include only a CD but the cover will feature two girls paired off with each other and come with its own remix of last track “愛をこころにサマーと数えよ” (“Ai o kokoro ni samā to kazoeyo”).

MOMOIRO CLOVER Z takes interesting tactic for upcoming music video!

Four-member idol group MOMOIRO CLOVER Z dropped a small music video preview for their newest track “魂のたべもの” (“Tamashi no Tabemono”) on their official YouTube channel. “Tamashi no Tabemono” will be released on the group’s upcoming self-titled album MOMOIRO CLOVER Z May 17. 

“Tamashi no Tabemono” was written by Yuho Iwasato and composed by Masaru Yokoyma. The pair wanted to craft a maturer theme of “darkness of the heart” for “Tamashi no Tabemono”.  To reach the full potential of that specific theme, MOMOIRO CLOVERZ employed a small string orchestra to play the tempo for the song, a rarity in the idol genre. Several beautiful scenes of nature with smoky outlined images of MOMOIRO CLOVER Z and the orchestra are interspersed throughout the video.

MOMOIRO CLOVER Z will be released with three editions: a standard CD-only edition and two limited editions, Type A and Type B. Type A will include an additional Blu-ray and not only feature the music videos of several songs but also their live “Seishun” which took place in Nakano’s Sun Plaza Hall with full audio commentary from the idols. Type B, on the other hand, will feature an additional CD that will include “ZZ” versions of the group’s past hits.
