Toshiki Kadomatsu's third studio album, released May 1983, marks a turning point in his career. As his first self-produced and self-arranged work, it showcases his complete artistic vision and became a landmark city pop release. With its cohesive sound and breezy, seaside aesthetic, this album captures the essence of AOR and city pop at its finest. Following modest sales on his earlier efforts, this record achieved commercial success and established the signature high-pressure city-pop fusion style that would define his future work. An essential listen for devoted fans of the genre.
