Cooking Songs / Curry Rice / Dream Sailor Tomose Asahiko mmm

cooking songs is a free jazz/pop band that delivers "music" and "food." Starting with the concept of a handmade dinner show by Yasuyuki Takahashi and Tomohiko Tomonose, the band now consists of seven members, including Ryusaku Ikezawa (Suga Dairo Little Blue), Taku Tajima (Nangoku Peyang), Keitaimo (WUJA BIN BIN, ex. BEAT CRUSADERS), Junichi Uefuten (Tagaryu to Kaiser Soze), and Panic Ohara (Tamudai!). This is a 7-inch single featuring two songs from their second album, "Curry Rice," released in June.

A light and sophisticated crossover band led by Yasuyuki Takahashi (Shibusashirazu) and Tomohiko Tomonose (Kataomoi)! A welcome 7-inch cut from their second album, "Curry Rice," released in June 2018. A must-have!

The title track is a light and spicy bossa nova, also selected as the theme song for the short film "Curry Rice" (starring Kai Inowaki and Nico Ando)! It's a stylish and groovy tune featuring mmm on vocals. And, the coupling includes a cover of "Yume no Funanori" (Dream Sailor), a free soul disco kayo song sung by Yukihide Takekawa from Yuji Ohno's 1978 B-grade SF anime soundtrack "Captain Future," which Muro also recommends. This track features a fantastic arrangement that transitions from about two minutes of furious free jazz at the beginning to a cheerful Brazilian disco boogie with lively percussion and funky chorus. An undeniably super powerful double-sider!!
