Our Take

TAKUYA KURODA's latest album, "Midnight Crispin," is a whimsical musical journey that will transport you to a funky, soulful dimension. With his unique blend of jazz, hip-hop, and electronica, KURODA takes us on a sonic voyage through the streets of London, as if we're following the ghost of Crispin himself.

From the moment you press play, you're greeted by the infectious groove of the title track, "Midnight Crispin," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. KURODA's trumpet skills are on full display, weaving in and out of the hypnotic beats with ease. It's as if he's casting a spell on us, luring us deeper into his musical world.

Tracks like "London Fog" and "Piccadilly Sunshine" showcase KURODA's experimental side, blending traditional jazz elements with modern electronic sounds. The result is a refreshing take on the genre that keeps you guessing at every turn.

But it's not all fun and games on "Midnight Crispin." KURODA delves into deeper, more introspective territory on tracks like "Soho Serenade" and "Chelsea Rain." These slower, more contemplative tunes show a different side of the artist, revealing his vulnerability and emotional depth.

Overall, "Midnight Crispin" is a delightful romp through the streets of London, with TAKUYA KURODA as our charming guide. So hop on board, and let the music take you on a wild ride through the city that never sleeps. Cheers!
