SHANADOO

major - active (2006 - )

They are Japanese, they sing in Japanese, they do ParaPara (dance movement mainly performed with the arms, very popular in Japan and typical of the Dance and Eurobeat style.)yet they are directed at the German and Austrian audience.

Their producer, David Brandes, capitalises on the fact that the girls are Japanese, and this leads to the most kitch of cliches: Japanese ideograms, kimonos, song names using the Japan lexical field and samples of traditional tunes among others. He doesn't even hesitate to reuse some songs and tunes that he wrote and produced for the German Eurodance band : E-rotic.
