78. The girl group Sugar was my gateway drug

to K-pop. To me it sounded like YMO (one of my all time favorite bands) playing Euro-techno pop with four ludicrously cute and surprisingly solid singers fronting the show. It was pure catnip for me

I love prog rock, The Grateful Dead, classical, EDM, chill and nearly all types if music but girl group techno K-pop is completely irresistible to me. It is so much FUN! And I also dig Ayumi Hamasaki.
