[Machine Translation] B&FonT ( Bandfont ), a 7-piece band led by Shinya Nishimura, Snorkel, has released its first mini-album! The album is an ambitious work based on the concept of "the end of the world" and "feelings connected across planets" while maintaining the pop, rock, and catchy melodies of Nishimura's previous work "Y." The concept is "the ultimate long-distance love affair. The lyrics are written by Okano on guitar and transformed into English lyrics, instrumental, acoustic, and various other forms. Masayoshi Ibuchi, who also participated in JUDY AND MARY's "WARP" and YUKI's "PRISMIC," was invited for mixing and mastering, and rhythm recording, which is a key element of the band, was done at the private studio of former JUDY AND MARY member Yoshito Onda. The overwhelming sound of the band, led by Haru, who plays support bass for Sincerity Brothers, Sekai Ichi, Kohei Dojima, and others, was created in a private studio of former JUDY AND MARY Onda. The three mixed vocals of Nishimura, former SDN48 member Chaki (Tomoki Hatakeyama), and Irohamonica further unify the band in this all-out work!
