AKIRA KOSEMURA - GOODBYE, SUMMER RAIN 7-inch vinyl

Rare 7-inch.

Vinyl in excellent condition. Jacket has some wrinkles.

Following no.9, the second collaboration with Neo-Future features a song written by Akira Kosemura, the head of the Schole label and a renowned figure in the electronica scene. This valuable track, which has not yet been released on CD, is now available as an analog record.

It's like a piece of poetry, evoking the end of summer and the scent of autumn.

"goodbye, summer rain" features a soft piano solo that expands with a subtle beat, and synth sounds are woven in at the moment of excitement. Paniyolo, who also released music from Schole, participates as a guest guitarist. Side B, "with the girl," a collaboration with Kosemura, maintains the atmosphere of Side A, with the sounds of insects echoing in the field, and a simple sound of guitar and piano. However, it's a song that makes you feel something hot, like two artists ascending to the heavens in a trance in a moonlit meadow.

And above all, have you noticed that there's a little "playfulness" in this analog record?

This work focuses on the "beat," which Kosemura had wanted to try until now, and you'll notice that it has a slightly different taste from Kosemura's previous Schole sound. Also, although each side is divided into two songs, "goodbye, summer rain" on Side A and "with the girl" on Side B, the actual title is "goodbye, summer rain with the girl," and the work is completed by listening to the two songs together.

SIDE-A
・goodbye, summer rain

SIDE-B
・with the girl (on Guitar Paniyolo - from Schole)
