CMT Japan 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: Natsu Summer's 2024 release, Orange Tsushin (Orange Communication), produced by Cunimondo Takiguchi of Ryusenkei, is a delightful blend of danceable lovers' rock and soothing city pop, featuring ama-piano and steppers rhythms. The seven-track album is highlighted by a cover of a hidden Japanese lovers' rock classic from the 90s, adding a unique twist to its reggae and city pop roots. With different jacket artwork for each media format, Takiguchi's artistic touch extends beyond music. Released on cassette, Orange Tsushin is a vibrant homage to Natsu Summer's Ehime heritage, encapsulating the spirit of mandarin oranges in both sound and visual presentation.
