Product Description
Soundtype is a piano trio that pursues a "borderless" sound that transcends genres and national borders. Their debut album, "Soundtype" (November 2024), born from the solid careers and diverse musical backgrounds of Yusuke Kono (Pf), Yuta Kominami (Ba), and Jun Otsu (Dr), garnered significant attention for its powerful groove and sophisticated sound, earning it the title of "Japanese Black Radio." In February 2025, they released a 7-inch single of their cover of "Human Nature" (Michael Jackson) from the same album. In addition to the exquisite cover featuring saxophonist Yota Miyazato and vocalist KOTETSU, Side B included a "Human Nature - DnB Jungle O2 Remix" by drummer Jun Otsu, attracting attention from club jazz fans. And now, their 2nd album, "Soundtype 2," which will open up new horizons, is finally complete. Further elevating jazz, R&B, hip-hop, and gospel, this latest work, featuring a diverse range of guests from both domestic and international scenes, effortlessly transcends boundaries between real and online, acoustic and digital. Experience the future of jazz as envisioned by Soundtype, its evolved form. 1. Sequelude -2- (Atsushi Otsu) 2. WAKABA (Yusuke Kono) 3. Glimmer (Yuta Omino) 4. HITOTSUBU NO NAMIDA (Yusuke Kono) 5.
