Hachiku: “Wild Eyed and Free”

This is the obvious song choice to write up. “Wild Eyed and Free.” Promises to be a real unchained rock n roll banger. Which I’m sure Australia’s Hachiku is capable of. But on this particular track, the musician behind the moniker Anika Ostendorf elects to keep things mellow. A medium tempo electro pop bounce propels the song along with a faintly world beat persuasion. Watch for the vocal sunshowers, harp-sploitation, and chiptune finish.
