Fukazawa seceded the group in October, 2006.
Instead, Takeshi Horikoshi joined.

I uploaded two new tracks, called “I Love Your Swingin’ in a Swing” & “Another Kiss, Another Night”.
*******
“I Love Your Swingin’ in a Swing” ; Partly polyrhythm of 3/4 & 4/4. ; Motown beats. ; I intentionally wrote so catchy melody with mainly using major keys (so this track is very different from my old works).
“Evening Dress (Another Kiss)” ; I tried to make a track like bossa nova, but the finished is nothing but a strange one… ; And it sounds obscene though I tried to make a elegant one… maybe factor’s a sound of guiro. ; Modulations will come twice. ; In the second interlude, there’s a section like trance music... BPM is over 300.
*******
It will be nice if you give me your impressions… please check those over if you have a time. I’m looking forward to receiving your words.
See ya! [MATA-NE] (‘u‘)b -OMC from Tokyo- Classical / New Wave / Progressive
