* Commentary by Shintaro Nishizaki

The latest album from Camera Soul, a follower band of TBNH and Incognito, who made their presence known to Japanese listeners with their 2015 album "Dress Code", is here!!

Camera Soul, an Italian soul band whose 2015 album "Dress Code," influenced by acid jazz and featuring a refreshing sound in the vein of TBNH and Incognito, was released in Japan, will release their latest album "Connections" soon! Their previous album "Dress Code" won first place on the UK Soul Chart, an authority on the British soul scene, and their popularity has spread beyond Italy to other parts of Europe and even Japan!

●The elegant Camera Soul style is still alive and well!! A masterpiece resounding with beautiful acid jazz, AOR, and Latin soul!!

The title track ① "Connections" starts off in full gear, and is a refreshing song that is typical of Camera Soul, similar to "Bring Me Back" from the previous album!! ② "Help Yourself" and ③ "Black Cat" are also excellent numbers that are highlights of this album, with a club jazz taste directly from TBNH and Incognito!! ⑤ "This Is Not The Right Way" is reminiscent of the heartfelt slow "More And More" from the previous album, and ⑨ "Summer Breeze" is likely to become a summer staple, and is sure to become a new popular song for Camera Soul!! As with the previous album, Maria, the face of Camera Soul with her beautiful proportions, is in charge of main vocals!!

★A cover of The Crusaders' "Street Life" is included as a bonus track exclusive to the Japanese version!!
