Emerald, a six-piece band featuring Yosuke Nakano, formerly of PaperBagLunchbox. They have pursued rich pop music based on genres such as jazz, soul, and AOR. From their mini-album "On Your Mind," which they completed with guest vocalists Etsuko (DADARAY / katyusha), who supports Gesu no Kiwami Otome. and indigo la End, and yuthke, the guitarist of TAMTAM, they have decided to release their first analog release, featuring two particularly popular songs. Side A, "Moonlight," which opens with a dazzling horn section, is a soulful and groovy mid-tempo tune with a glamorous night mood. It's a masterpiece that stimulates the tear ducts with the exchange of soaring falsetto vocals and poignant melodies! And Side B, "Tokyo," which was released in advance and ranked on Spotify's rising chart, expresses the story of the daily lives of people living in the city, which pass by in a light and busy manner, with a light beat and layers of floating keyboards and chorus! It's a masterpiece that combines city pop songwriting and the sound making of contemporary R&B after Frank Ocean and Blood Orange.
