Most Excellent Unltd 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: Most Excellent Unlimited celebrates the 20th anniversary of AK's house classic 'Say That You Love Me,' with two exclusive 7" edits by Danny Krivit on a limited edition collectors' clear pink vinyl and featuring a new picture sleeve. Kakihara has released scored numerous hits and produced some fifteen albums in her home territory Japan, and her native country's flavour remains strong on this track despite becoming an international hit. It was first released as a downtempo R&B mix in 2001, the year that AK relocated to New York City. Later the same year 'Say That You Love Me' was picked up by King Street Records, who commissioned Francois Kevorkian and Eric Kupper to give the original a deep house overhaul. This release features Krivit's edits of both that house mix and AK's own remix, and given that he and AK were married in 2008, you can rest assured he's put the maximum effort in!

Review: The revered songstress that is AK is back on Most Excellent Unlimited for another hot and soulful single that comes on the heels of a special 7" release of her seminal 'Say That You Love Me.' This one, 'Beautiful You' is making its vinyl debut here and comes with strong messages of empowerment and affirmation. The lyrics and vocals are uplifting as is the music which comes in the form of a 7" edit by Body & Soul legend Danny Krivit' of GRAMMYr award-winner Hex Hector's Lush remix. It's a perfectly paired back sound with the original on the flip, and both tunes really make their mark. This is a great package that's exclusive to wax.
