What mannequin rap duo FEMM have learned since their 2014 debut album FEMM-Isation is so vital, and their sophomore album is more than just survival – this is an 80s/90s J-POP REVIVAL.

Released digitally on October 18th and physically a week later on October 25th, 80s/90s J-POP REVIVAL will be “a FEMMish edgy attempt to discover new things by studying the past through scrutiny of the old” – or, in layman’s terms, FEMM will be updating classic J-Pop hits with contemporary pop sounds.

Boasting production from MYLK (Monstercat, Krewella, Slushii) and grime/trap producers Radical Hardcore Clique (Diplo, NERVO) the covers are sure to take on an interesting, futuristic sound the mannequins have become synonymous with. Perched!

Check out the artwork, designed by London based designer Max Prentis, and the tracklist for 80s/90s J-POP REVIVAL:
