Somewhere Between: Mutant Pop, Electronic Minimalism & Shadow Sounds of Japan 1980-1988 assembles 14 tracks that don’t adhere to the rules of city pop but aren’t quite environmental music either. Where the former style tends to rely on steady funk and disco licks to establish danceable grooves, this 'mutant pop' (or, for the real heads, 'techno-pop') is more electronic, using grainy synths and drum machines to create a colder, more robotic feel.
