AOR in Japan - the first cover album released by Imai Yuko, a singer-songwriter leading the city pop scene!

■An ambitious work in which Yuko Imai worked on the cover in earnest, which covered ＜Midnight Door ~Stay With Me~ (Matsubara Miki) (Matsubara Miki) ahead of the recent city pop boom (newly recorded in the 2016 best edition “SWEETEST VOICE”).

■You can listen carefully to a gentle and comfortable singing voice with a superb sound full of realism that has been carefully created mainly with live sound in the background.

■I also hear the strange arrangement where Latin ~ fusion colors, which are also characteristic of Imai, ooze there.

■While avoiding the classics, it makes AOR ~ city pop fans groan with a well-balanced selection of songs that take popularity and enthusiast into consideration.

■The new song “Eternal Promise” written by the person himself has been recorded, and a full collection of works that is more than just a cover album has been completed.

“Imai Yuko, who picked up many famous Japanese and Western songs at live shows and released “Midnight Door ~Stay with Me~” (Matsubara Miki) ahead of the city pop boom, is the first cover album in her career. Reevaluations are progressing both domestically and internationally, and easy remakes of popular songs are flooding in these days, so I dared to take on the challenge of making this cover. Talented arranger: Abe Jun, who collaborates for 3 consecutive works, constructs Imai Yuko's fusion side and Latin side, and unit: Kawanari Jun by Kajiwara Jun and Tomonari Yoshihiro, who are old friends in the Toshio Kakumatsu family, will build a gentle organic side. It features the only new song “Eternal Promise” written down as a pre-distribution single. A band ensemble with a smooth, beautiful singing voice and transcendental realism will make a big difference to an ordinary city pop cover.” —Kanazawa Toshikazu Materials provided by sales and distributors (2025/02/19)
