Tokyo's Coolest Sound

Michihiro Nakamura, singer of THE IMAGE, has just released his first solo album. Titled "Bossa Tokyo", its sound takes its roots from bossa nova with elements of jazz-funk, techno, electronica, etc. The songs are covers of some bossa nova standards but also of Velvet Underground ("I'm Waiting For The Man"), David Bowie ("Rebel Rebel") and The Doors ("Light My Fire"). One original song titled "Dandelion" is also included.

Featured guest vocalists are Frances Maya and Keissy Costa, and musicians include Arakawa Yui, Ori Makoto (Francis) and Aikawa Satoshi.
