Shintaro Sakamoto pre-releases funk tune "Mahi" from new album and unveils studio live video
Today, January 19, Shintaro Sakamoto released "Mahi," the third advance single from his new album "Yaho," which is due out on January 23.
"Mahi" is a funk tune characterized by Sakamoto's minimalist guitar riff and the horn sound of Toru Nishiuchi (Sax, Flute / Reggae Disco Rockers, Tsuyoshi Kawakami and His Moodmakers). On the album "Yaho," it is a track that particularly stands out for its soul and funk flavor.
A studio live video for "Mahi" has also been released on YouTube. The video was filmed at PEACE MUSIC, the studio where the album "Yaho" was recorded. Directed by Yasuyuki Yamaguchi, it captures a performance by Sakamoto, Nishiuchi, AYA (B, Cho / OOIOO), and Yuta Suganuma (Dr, Cho). The recording was handled by Soichiro Nakamura.
