While incorporating elements of house music, the album strikes a perfect balance between the improvisational quality of jazz and the warmth of live performance. The songs are built on sophisticated production and are versatile enough to function both on the dance floor and in a home listening environment. This work marks an important milestone in Japan's club jazz scene.
