▼テクノポップって？
テクノポップとは、シンセサイザー、リズムマシンなど電子楽器の音色を意図的に多用し、同じフレーズを反復する、独特の質感を持ったポップスを指す和製英語である。

海外ではエレクトロポップ（エレポップ）、シンセポップと呼ばれる。坂本龍一が「テクノポップ」という言葉を多用し日本でこの単語が定着したという説など、語源には諸説ある。

What is technopop?
Technopop is a wasei-eigo word meaning a pop music genre of unique feel, made with the sound of electronic instruments like a synthesizer or a rhythm machine, manipulated intentionally, characterized by repetetive phrases.

Overseas, it's being called electropop or synthpop. Sakamoto Ryuuichi used this word, introducing it into Japanese vocabulary, although other theories on its origin exist.

Thank you for the clearance email.
I checked on Japanese Amazon and found a hit for ASIN B0792R42J7. There is a problem, though. A Chinese seller is selling it and "registered trademark" is written there. I think other sellers have read that so nobody lists the item.
I can't buy the item only to confirm whether this Chinese seller really has a registered trademark. In case it's a false claim, I'd like to have him remove that sentence about the registered trademark.

I'm sorry for the late reply.
Please let the payment be made through a bank transfer.
Due to Japanese bank regulations, you can only send below $9000 daily, so I'll divide it into two transfers.
Please tell me the bank account number.
I'm looking forward to when the ordered jewelry arrives.

I'm sorry for replying late. I tried to talk to various nursing companies whether they had any people who could serve as attendants for overseas trips, but they all denied me. Therefore, I can't go to Hongkong in January. Even though it was a chance to meet you, it's frustrating not to be able to use this opportunity. Though it would be easy for a healthy person to go to Hongkong, I don't have any other choice to accept I'm handicapped and on a wheelchair. I'd like to apologize profusely to you.
