Natsudaidai releases the title track produced by Tomita Lab from their first EP “Seikaten” and releases the music video

Natsudaidai has announced that they will release their first EP “Seikaten” on Wednesday, August 21st. The title track “Seikaten” was released today, Wednesday, May 29th.

Natsudaidai is a unit named after the Japanese summer fruit, formed by singer Yoh and track maker Nanae, who share the same birthday. Their sound and worldview are characterized by a fusion of Nanae’s track making, which is a revival of current R&B and the 90’s, and Yoh’s unique singing voice.

“Seikaten” was arranged and mixed by Tomita Lab, who was one of the first to notice the talents of the two members of Natsudaidai. He also gave advice on the overall production of the songs. The mixing and mastering of all the songs on the EP was done by Yasu2000, an engineer from origami PRODUCTIONS, who is backing up Natsudaidai with a rock-solid team.

A music video directed by yama was also released. Set in a real greengrocer in a shopping arcade in Ota Ward, Tokyo, the video shows the artist as a shop assistant during the day and as an artist at night. The video is colorful and features many fruits and vegetables.

In addition, the first release event, “Natsudaidai release party “fruits store”” will be held at TimeOut Cafe & Diner in Ebisu, Tokyo on Saturday, September 21st. Musicians who participated in the EP are scheduled to appear, and it will be an opportunity to experience the recorded songs in a band arrangement early. Advance ticket sales will start today, Wednesday, May 29th at 19:00.
