Lost Weekend / Down The Road

Slowly のMasato KomatsuとRyo Kawaharaがチルアウトな別名義Lost Weekendを始動。

コロナ禍で失われた週末に思いを馳せて作り上げた架空のサウンドトラック。 
淡く何処までも続くメロウなメロディー、そしてローファイかつダビーなエフェクト処理された音像。彼らの膨大な引き出しから様々な素材を引っ張り出して一気に作り上げた作品集。メロウネス溢れる『Lost Weekend Suite』はPart.1からPart.4までが連なった組曲でこのアルバムのハイライト・トラックと言える意欲作。エキゾ~ムード音楽的なサンプルが印象的な『Sunshine is Golden』、『Sweet Thing』、そしてSlowly名義でのスマッシュ・ヒット作Not Over Youを再構築した『It’s Not Over Yet』、ラストはChicによるオリジナル楽曲で、Robert Wyattの名演でも知られる『At Last I Am Free』でフィニッシュ。
エキゾ~バレアリック、チルアウトの新たな名作の誕生です。
初回完全限定生産のカセットテープ も同時リリース。
