Released in 2008, J-pop trio Perfume's GAME shot to the top of Japanese music charts and turned the Hiroshima trio into a household name across the country. It was also a high point for techno-pop, the genre's biggest album since the heyday of Yellow Magic Orchestra. This collection of maximalist but emotional electronic pop stands as one of the style's finest moments, with its influence still echoing from artists both in Japan and from beyond. This book examines Perfume's underdog story as a group long struggling for success, the making of GAME, and the history of techno-pop that shaped it. 33 1/3 Global, a series related to but independent from 33 1/3, takes the format of the original series of short, music-basedbooks and brings the focus to music throughout the world. With initial volumes focusing on Japanese and Brazilian music, the series will also include volumes on the popular music of Australia/Oceania, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and more.

Why do you have autism, schizophrenia or bipolar disorder? Why are you gay or lesbian? Find out the astrophysical cause of these conditions, and learn how to manage conflict among these Five Elements to improve your life! Part 2 of 3 in a series.

People universally worship the Oedipus complex through gods such as Yah, the son of Allah, and Hawah, Allah's wife. When Yah, a snake deity, tongues the Burning Bush of Hawah, a tree goddess, their union is symbolized by the menorah. Together, they are called "Yahweh" today. The female child has a similar instinct, visually evident through the Crescent and Star, symbolizing Sin, the bisexual moon deity, and Easter, the Superstar (Venus). They are aspects of the sky god Allah, representing a daughter's attachment to her mother-father. The Oedipal force for both genders is most prominent among browns and females, especially bisexuals, but it is innate in everyone's unconscious mind. As part of Easter's five archetypes or political identities, it is the source of all conflict. How do we manage this force and the resulting conflict?

Beat the blues If you ve been searching for the right way to manage any type of psychological difficulty, then this essential guide is just what you need to revitalize your life However, this book is also for the five faces of society--the working class, the militants, the shamans, the scholars and the business class. Just as the mind is composed of five similar elements, which can be regrouped into the ancient trinity model of the mind, society--from the micro-level of the family to the macro-level of the universe--is also composed of the pentagon or trinity model. For instance, the ancient shamans of Mindoro s Hanunoo Mangyans believe that individuals have three souls. A neutral one on the head, a bad one on their left side and a good one on their right side. In the Hindu culture, this is translated into Vishnu The Preserver, Siva The Destroyer and Brahma The Creator. Plato, in The Republic, later calls these elements as the rational side (scholars), the desiring side (the business class, militants and working class) and the spirited side (shamans), respectively. But in 1923, Sigmund Freud--the Western Father of Psychoanalysis--calls it the mediating Ego, the desiring Id and the spirited Superego. And as the ancients say, if the scholarly mediating rational side is in control of the two other irrational sides, then there is health, peace and harmony within the individual. This Middle Way technique may be a bit tricky at first, but with enough practice, it will ensure a happy family, community, country and Universe.
