Coming ahead to the Neo-City Pop of the 21st century, we have another winner with Ryusenkei(流線形)and their frequent collaborations with other artists who possess that similar and familiar groove. The last time I addressed these projects, Cunimondo Takiguchi(クニモンド瀧口)was working with singer-songwriter Sincere earlier this year.
Well, let's go back a few years and Takiguchi and Ryusenkei got together with Yasuyuki Horigome(堀込泰行) of Kirinji to release a 2022 single called "Futari no Silhouette" (two silhouette), and this one has a little bit of other genres mixing in with the modern urban contemporary. I can hear some of that evening jazz, a bit of that soul and those violins adding some of that class to the proceedings. Takiguchi was responsible for both words and music but there is something about Horigome's soft-as-velvet delivery that makes "Futari no Silhouette" his own.
