Tokyo's Coolest Sound

Osaka-based instrumental jazz-rock band Calmera has just released a new 7" single, a cut from their 12th album "Tasogare Resonance" released earlier this year (, Spotify, YouTube Music). With for A-side "Golden Hour" (watch the video below!), the B-side is a cover of Antônio Carlos Jobim's "Desafinado" which features jazz singer akiko but in an exclusive Portuguese version that's different from the album.

Both songs can be sampled at Jet Set.

A previous 7" from the same album, of songs "ue ni ikitakunai Depart" and "Mato Pato", is still available at least at CDJapan and HMV. Both 7" releases are on Unchantable Records.
