Singer-songwriter ZIN, also a member of the Kansai-based artist collective Soulflex, will release his latest EP "JOJO" on Wednesday, October 22.

This marks his first full project in about two years since his debut album "CURVE."With this new work, ZIN refines his introspective yet passionate sound, delicately expressing his musical roots in R&B and Soul. A record where stillness and heat shimmer and fuse together, it captures "ZIN in this very moment."

The EP features some of Japan's most renowned beatmakers and producers, including Kzyboost, FKD, 1Co.INR, ji2kia, Aru-2, and grooveman Spot. Alongside four pre-released singles -
- "Transcend" (a classic R&B track evoking the sweetness of slow jams),
- "Everytime I" (a minimal yet expansive production featuring rapper KOJOE),
- "Distortion" (a chill track with lyrics that intertwine sweetness and pain), and
- "Moegara" (a poignant love song exploring the theme that loving and hurting are two sides of the same coin) -

the EP includes two brand-new tracks: "Say So"(produced by Aru-2, unleashing ZIN's Neo-Soul essence), and the lead track "In The End."

Produced by grooveman Spot, "In The End" blends authentic R&B/Soul sensibilities with sleek, urban refinement. Over the track, ZIN delivers a soulful performance that weaves a story of purification and rebirth.

Altogether, this six-track EP is crafted to be the perfect companion for late-night drives or quiet moments before bed - an intimate work that seeps gently into the soul while gradually building a lingering heat.
