Music Comment
A slightly mature and very fashionable fusion number.
Song Production Information
A long time ago, fusion was called "crossover". I remember that this genre, which was named from the middle meaning of jazz and rock, was extremely hot around 20 years ago. This song isn't a so-called "Japanese fusion", but if anything, is conscious of the international fusion of "the good old days when musical instruments sang". I don't really know now, but a decade ago, those aspiring to be musicians learned about this genre at least once to master their techniques. In addition to the exciting rhythms, which don't seem to leap but are actually leaping, please enjoy the backbeat's "intense textures".
Character Information
SYLVESTER, whose trademark item is a large hat, is a childhood friend of BAMBOO, who he calls "brother". He has a very calm personality, but when on stage, he turns into a super HOT man!
★ America ☆ Dance, playing musical instruments. He's good at the keyboard!
