Description
[Machine Translation] This is the first album by EIKEN, a band of talented musicians who arrange music for both Western and Japanese films. The first track, "The Bouncer", is a song by the famous Japanese film director, Akira Kurosawa. The first track, "The Bouncer," is arranged to convey the tension of a samurai duel scene and the sound of footsteps in front of your eyes, if you have seen the movie. These two songs will give you a taste of EIKEN's wide range. Norihiko Kawakubo (piano, keyboard harmonica), Hiroshi Kanno (alto saxophone, chromatic harmonica), Tomohiko Egami (wood bass, electric bass), and Koji Ebisawa (drums) are all active as musicians in various fields, but the four members of EIKEN only began performing together in August 2012. EIKEN performs live mainly in Tokyo and Kanagawa.
Note: This is an import edition (manufactured outside of Japan).
