壹蘋派生活美語　用音樂說故事　超人氣組合 YOASOBI

　　The musical duo YOASOBI is made up of songwriter and producer Ayase and vocalist Ikura. Part of the appeal of YOASOBI is the contrast of styles that these two musicians bring to their music. While Ayase is usually dressed in black with heavy influence from Japanese rock music, Ikura wears colorful clothing and sings with a clear, innocent voice. Together, this unlikely pair creates music that stands out in the Japanese pop music scene.

　　音樂雙人組合 YOASOBI 由作曲家兼製作人 Ayase 及歌手 Ikura 所組成。YOASOBI 的部分魅力在於這兩位音樂人為其音樂帶來的風格對比。Ayase 通常身穿黑色衣服並深受日本搖滾樂的影響，而 Ikura 則身著色彩鮮豔的衣服並用一副清澈、純真的嗓音來演唱。這對不太可能的搭檔共同創造了在日本流行音樂界脫穎而出的音樂。
