Blueprint Tokyo Drives Alternative to a Whole New Dimension with ‘Blue’

The quality of Blueprint Tokyo’s dream pop is sublime. It swings into contemporariness with imaginative ideas and creative blueprints. They embrace the exploration, follow its flow and feed it with incredible prompts. Every track of theirs has that intuitive aspect, so chill, so open, and so free that the more you listen to it, you start to gain these themes. You can viscerally feel their music, get washed by its surreal ethos and emerge on the other side  just profoundly dazed. Their latest release is the ‘Blue EP’, a five track collection that is nothing short of transcendental. It perceives cerebral levels and drives to the highest one and keeps you at that peak. 

‘Odysseus’ starts the journey laying out the fuzzy bridge between dream pop and indie rock. Imagine a structure coming together one rhythm style, one riff arc, and one melody frame at a time. Such dynamism, absorbed in a sphere of subtlety. It is such a pleasure to experience it. There are so many details that the journey reveals more to you each time you listen to it. Tame Impala fans, get ready to fall in love once again. 

‘Only Hearts’ is up next. It is softer, slower, and more sentimental. Warm and blue, it forms on the wings of melodic 90s rock and contemporary pop. Like if Celine Dion and Linkin Park were to collaborate. ‘Closed Door Drama’ is glassy and cryptic. The pop sparks a retro feel. And just when you get comfortable there, it plunges you in a surprisingly contemporary whirlpool. There rock, emo, and a seeping darkness. 

‘Mission Control’ is edgy, sharp, and a classic rock drift. It develops an anthemic blueprint before dissolving into soft vocal harmonies, melodic highs, and symmetries. Back and forth, oscillating and cultivating, it is alt rock done right! Lastly, ‘Transfer’. A stylish and charismatic rock song that is just so cool. The air, the groove, the beat, and the bass; all of it! Bolstered to a popping rhythm, once you tune in, you get wrapped up in it irrevocably. 

While most artists are trying to define and grab on to “their style”, this duo are comfortable with being in a transient space. They recognise that that’s where the fun is, and the ideas are. Seeing definitions are boundaries, they fly unfettered with nothing but a zeal for creation and exploration; yielding genre-bending, mind warping, breathtaking soundscapes in their wake.
