Ryusenkei feat. Sincere -- Super Generation

 

Nothing like a postcard of love to and from the capital city of Japan. I still miss many things about Tokyo including the nightscapes and the many convenient aspects. 

Looks like Ryusenkei(流線形)and the singer Sincere echo the same sentiments with their "Super Generation", the first track on the former's new album "Illusions" from July of this year. Written and composed by the chief representative from Ryusenkei, Cunimondo Takiguchi(クニモンド瀧口), I noticed that the track doesn't have Sincere on the byline. Well, she's getting one here since she is singing the tune, for heaven's sake!

The video is indeed a visual love letter to Tokyo and the music has some of the disco from the 1970s along with some of the Japanese R&B feeling from the early 2000s (it has some Mondo Grosso vibes) while Sincere is sweetly singing away. As for Sincere, her management company has stated that she's a singer-songwriter who's into soul and was inspired by acts such as Prince and Arrested Development.
