I think one of the reasons I like TH6 better is just because of the first love thing — it was the first of Tomoko Kawase's projects I'd heard and I immediately loved it, etc.

I was supposed to be interviewing Tomoko earlier this year when her Best Of... album came out but the label ended up having to pull all press because they couldn't contact her to arrange a time, so it sounds like at the very least communication between the label and management wasn't as free-flowing as it might be.<br /><br />Personally I always massively preferred the TF6 stuff, but then I'm an 80s new wave and synth geek so it struck a chord with me. Also, on a curious sidenote a friend of mine was in a couple of her promo videos and he says that "the back of her head is really flat".
