The dawn of acid jazz with their self-titled debut
This is the first release from the Shibuya-based acid jazz/nu-jazz trio.
A masterpiece that combines urban groove with sophisticated performance. The composition, which intertwines jazz, funk, and hip-hop beats, resonates with the international club scene despite being from Japan, and effortlessly transcends genre boundaries. Although it is a debut album, the sound is highly polished, and it is a powerful work that clearly demonstrates the band's musical independence and cutting-edge nature.
