Back in July this year, I was surprised to find out that composer/arranger Seikou Nagaoka（長岡成貢）who had come up with the epic theme to the anime "Shinpi no Sekai El-Hazard"（神秘の世界エルハザード）back in the mid-1990s also liked to mix it up with the turntables on the dance floor. Indeed, he came up with his 2009 album "Romantic Gold" and from there, I plucked out "Dancing Until Dawn" featuring singer Adya.
Got another track from "Romantic Gold", "Eternal Love", this time featuring singer MIKA SHI-NO (who has no connection with enka singer Mika Shinno). It's not all that much different in feeling from "Dancing Until Dawn", but if you're in the mood for some contemporary fun tonight to drive away any thoughts of it being Friday the 13th today, then this song along with probably any of the other tracks from "Romantic Gold" ought to do you some good. Do love that sax going crazy near the end.
In fact, I wouldn't be too sad if I could find some more similar recent works on YouTube if I can. In any case, you can take a look at some of his other albums along with "Romantic Gold" on his old website.
