Kaji Hideki has a new album coming this month! This one is a tribute to Sweden's sweet winter, and it's his 2nd release from his own Blue Boys Club label (follow-up to "Blue Heart" (2012)).
Title song "Sweet Swedish Winter" is a cover of Swedish band Freewheel (original on YouTube), and "Illuminum Song" is a self-cover with lyrics written by Katrina Mitchell (The Pastels (UK)). Featured guest musicians include Sokabe Keiichi Band, KONCOS (a band from Hokkaidō), and Per Sunding (member of Eggstone).
All songs can be sampled at the ordering links below.

Au fait, ce ne sera que des covers où il y aura des morceaux originaux? Je me suis posée la question en voyant l'album il y'a quelque mois, mais vu que j'ai un japonais TRES limité je n'ai pas eu ma réponse.

C'est bien un nouvel album original! Sauf pour les 2 covers que j'ai mentionné (un de Freewheel et un de lui-même). :)
