✨ About this release
Takanaka in 1979. Confident, melodic, sun-drunk. This album’s not rare because it’s old. It’s rare because it still sounds fun. “Blue Lagoon” did numbers, sure. But the rest? That’s where the glow is. Pressed here on clear yellow.
🎧 Musical style
Bright funk. Surf guitars. Plastic palm trees. “Radio Rio” brings Sakamoto into the mix. “Rainy Day Blue” slows things down without killing the momentum. The whole album feels like cruising at golden hour, with no destination : just vibing.
