The album features the newly released third album by fox capture plan, the steelpan orchestra WAIWAI STEEL BAND, and the piano trio PRIMITIVE ART, who make a spectacular debut with the simultaneous release of this album (Tower Records pre-sale). ORCHESTRA, bohemianvoodoo, whose second album "SCENES" released in 2012 continues to enjoy long sales and is expected to release a long-awaited new album at the end of 2014, Tres-men, who continue to pursue the next generation of dance music, and the jazz/brazilian based R&B and HIP HIP HOP Immigrant's Bossa Band, which comfortably blends elements of R&B and HIP HOP with a jazz/Brazilian base.As a big surprise, Playwright Players, a group of elite musicians selected from various bands and formed for this project, and TRI4TH, an up-and-coming band in the jazz scene that is gaining recognition both in Japan and abroad, will join the project in a blitz!
