Tokyo's Coolest Sound

Synth and keyboard lovers should find it hard to resist to Emerson Kitamura! This new album of 6 songs is the follow up to "Ochi Kochi Ni (in perspective)" (2014), and consists of more delectable instrumental pieces, mostly originals but also covers of Blood, Sweat & Tears' "Spinning Wheel" (1969) and Irving Berlin's "Remember" (1937). Check out the delightful video below, and see Emerson's YouTube account for recent live performances.

A live event will be held at Shimokitazawa fu-chi-ku-chi on January 20. A free in-store event will also be held at Tower Records Shibuya (6F) on Sunday January 15. Find his full schedule here.
