Lyric

In recent years, various forms of Japanese music-including city pop and fusion-have been rediscovered across borders and generations. At the same time, contemporary J-pop, hip-hop, K-pop, African-rooted pop music, and other styles from around the world are interacting more closely than ever, continuously giving rise to new musical currents.

I see a strong parallel between this environment and the spirit of 1970s-80s fusion, where different musical ideas were freely combined without being bound by genre.
"Some kind of fusion"was created from that perspective: a guitar-led instrumental built around the bright, breezy energy of guitar fusion, while incorporating contemporary production aesthetics and the language of hip-hop.

Rap vocals are featured by jackkn.

As for the inspiration behind the cover artwork, I'll leave that to your imagination.

Composition / Arrangement / Guitar / Bass / Keyboards / Programming / Cover Artwork: Daisuke Akao

With the exception of some assistance with typography adjustments for the cover artwork and a limited amount of administrative work, no AI was used in the music production process for this release.

To preserve the texture and presence of live performance, all live-instrument parts were processed using acoustics derived from Onkio Haus in Tokyo. I hope even a little of the atmosphere of this legendary studio-where countless artists have recorded over the years-comes through in the sound.

This is an original instrumental work composed and produced by myself, released as an original master recording.

Intended uses include:

General music streaming and listening
Background music for video, livestreams, podcasts, and similar media
DJ use
Sampling, remixing, and other forms of creative reuse

The track is also available for purchase and download through platforms such as Amazon Music and Bandcamp.

If a third party wishes to use this work commercially for sampling, remixing, or related purposes, some distribution services may require written proof of permission for commercial use. If necessary, please contact me using the details below, and I can provide an individual letter of authorization.

As of September 2026, TuneCore Creators is temporarily not accepting new track registrations. Once submissions reopen, I plan to register this track there as well, so it may also be available for use in video content and other creator projects through that service.
