Following his first solo album 'HOSONO HOUSE' (1973), this second effort captures the moment he steered toward a freer sound-one rich in tropical flavor and multicultural fusion. It stands as a landmark work that connected Japanese pop music to the global musical landscape. This album, which continues to enchant listeners around the world, is a cornerstone of Hosono's so-called 'Tropical Trilogy' and a turning point in his musical journey that would eventually lead to the formation of YMO. This 50th-anniversary reissue, set for release on Wednesday, June 25, 2025-exactly 50 years after the original-offers a rare chance to re-experience the adventurous spirit of this essential work.
