 Hey readers! It's me, Tr3xus, delivering you this week's beat.

This week's selection is crossing field, by LiSA. crossing field is LiSA's second single. The song is written and composed by Sho Watanabe and is featured in the first opening of the anime, "Sword Art Online / ソードアート・オンライン".

There are some songs that hook you up the moment you listen to it. To me, crossing field is one of them.

Turn up the volume for some eargasm because the song's intro is EPIC. The verses and chorus sounds really awesome too. There is something about j-pop that is truly unique from other genres. I feel that this song reflects the uniqueness of j-pop very clearly. Perhaps it's the combination of beautiful violin and energetic guitar melodies. I love how they manage to make the clashing melodies in (1:17-1:22 & 3:40-4:00) sound right.

The album was released on August 8, 2012 and includes 2 other songs + crossing field (instrumental).
It is available for purchase on iTunes and cdjapan.

Note: The music in the video has been pitch altered


Enjoy the brand new month of September guys!
