Song Production Information
TOMOSUKE
The '70s jazz scene saw lots of music that actively approached the funk and rock sides while freely using electric instruments.
Such sounds were often seen on specific series of records from prominent labels such as Blue Note and Riverside.
In the latter half of the '80s, these records were reevaluated and dubbed "rare groove," becoming the genesis of Acid Jazz.
This song aims for a "jazz in the house" sound, named after the large mid-'90s movement that fused the good-old rare groove, mentioned earlier, with house music.
The song takes lessons from the classics to unfold new sounds with vintage electric instruments (including the Fender Rhodes).
Please enjoy.
