Anri

The review

The enjoyable collaboration with Kadomatsu continues on this album, which also welcomes top L.A. musicians such as Don Grusin. Along with the title dance track, Anri's singing is especially fine on the supple mellow tunes. A4 is a medium-tempo song with the highest polish Kadomatsu could bring, while A6 leans toward Southern soul. B3 is a classic mellow ballad, and B4 has an easy medium-flow groove. On the smooth wave of sound woven by Kadomatsu and Anri, body and mind are both gently drawn in.
