Our Take

TAKUYA KURODA's "Rising Son" is a sonic journey that transcends time and space, taking listeners on a funky ride through the cosmos. The album opens with the infectious groove of "R.S.B.D.", setting the tone for what's to come. KURODA's smooth trumpet lines soar over the pulsating rhythms, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking. One of the standout tracks on the album is "Afro Blues", a soulful ballad that showcases KURODA's impeccable phrasing and emotive playing. The lush arrangement of horns and keys creates a dreamy atmosphere that is impossible to resist. "Mala" is another gem, with its infectious Latin-infused groove and hypnotic melody. Throughout "Rising Son", KURODA seamlessly blends jazz, funk, and soul influences to create a sound that is uniquely his own. The production is top-notch, with every instrument and sound carefully layered to create a rich tapestry of sound. This is an album that demands to be listened to on repeat, with each spin revealing new layers of complexity and beauty. In conclusion, TAKUYA KURODA's "Rising Son" is a triumph of musical ingenuity and creativity. With its captivating melodies and virtuosic performances, this album solidifies KURODA's place as a true innovator in the world of contemporary jazz. Don't sleep on this one – it's a must-listen for music lovers of all stripes.
