Review by Andreas Stricker

Album Review: How You Like Me Now by m-flo Alright, so let’s talk about How You Like Me Now by m-flo. This J-Pop and electronic banger dropped back in 2000 under Rhythm Zone, and honestly? It’s one of those albums that sneaks up on you. At first glance, it might seem like just another pop record from Japan, but trust me—there’s more to it than meets the eye (or ear?). First off, the title track “How You Like Me Now?” is everywhere on this album, and I mean everywhere. There are multiple versions of it here: radio edits, instrumentals, and even a full-length take. The song itself is catchy as heck, with this groovy beat that sticks in your head for days. It's got that slick blend of electronic vibes and classic J-Pop energy that makes you wanna dance awkwardly in your room. What stands out most is how smooth the production feels—it’s polished without being overdone, which was kinda rare at the time. Plus, the lyrics have this playful confidence that hits different. Like, yeah, how do you like them now? Another standout track has gotta be “Brain-Spill.” Honestly, I didn’t expect much when I first hit play, but wow, did it slap. The original full-length version is where it’s at—there’s this raw edge to it that feels almost experimental compared to the rest of the album. It’s chaotic in the best way possible, like they threw a bunch of ideas into a blender and somehow made it work. You can tell m-flo wasn’t afraid to push boundaries, and that’s what makes this track memorable. Every time I listen to it, I catch something new—a synth layer, a vocal tweak, or some random sound effect hiding in the mix. Now, quick side note: including two live versions of songs (“Been So Long” and “How You Like Me Now?”) gives the album a cool dynamic. It’s not perfect though—some folks might find all the repeats of the same tracks a bit excessive. But hey, if you’re really digging a song, why not hear it five different ways, right? Here’s the thing: listening to How You Like Me Now feels like stepping into a time capsule of early 2000s Japanese music culture. It’s nostalgic, sure, but also kinda futuristic in its own weird way. And honestly, isn’t that what good music should do? Make you feel things while blowing your mind a little? Unexpected thought: If this album were a person, it’d probably be that effortlessly cool friend who always knows the latest trends but still rocks their own unique style. You know, the one you secretly envy but can’t help loving anyway. Yeah, that’s How You Like Me Now. Check it out—you won’t regret it.

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s a fun fact: The album *How You Like Me Now* by m-flo is a bit of a J-Pop time capsule. Released in 2000 in Japan, it blends electronic and pop vibes with that unmistakable J-Pop flair. What’s quirky about it? The tracklist feels like déjà vu—there are multiple versions of the same song! You get radio edits, instrumentals, and even live versions. It’s almost like they were saying, “How many ways can we serve this track to you?” Definitely a vibe of its era, when remixes ruled the scene.
