Decided to start listening to the guys' side projects, starting with collabs, and so far I have some thoughts™ on Move It (Hotei's Strangers Album, 2015, and single, 2016)
> Could be my sleep-deprived brain speaking but it reminded me of a Muse song? I haven't heard Muse in a long time but it certainly has the vibes.
> Richard's voice sounds so different when he sings in English! I haven't heard Emigrate yet but this just let me more curious about his project. Been procrastinating on it but I really want to give it a listen
> Hotei is the composer behing "Battle Without Honour or Humanity", which got featured in Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill Vol. 1. Given how Richard is a QT fan and the band got inspired by his work in their earlier days, I'm sure Richard got all giddy to work with Hotei.
And from the preview video:
> "Hi I'm Richard Z. K. from Emigrate" - not to be confused with Richard Z. K. from Rammstein, two completely different people
> Another moment for the Richard-slowly-approaching-the-camera collection
Move it, move it, move it, move it, MOVE IIIT
