V.A. “THE NITE ~Romantic Groove~ narrated and selected by DJ OHNISHI” CD
Both the first and second volumes of "THE NITE" hit number one on the Amazon R&B charts, creating a sensation on the scene as a new type of radio-style compilation of soul/R&B! The release of the third volume of the commemorative series has been decided to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the show!
"Takafumi Onishi's THE NITE" is a long-running radio program on Tokyo FM Group Music Bird that airs soul, R&B, disco, and AOR live for three hours from 9pm Monday through Friday and has featured big international artists such as Tuxedo and Dennis Hines in the past.
Western music aficionados who are captivated by the reliable song selection of DJ Takafumi Onishi, who is in charge of the show's composition, song selection, and DJing, flooded the show with requests for an official CD release, which was finally released on CD in June 2018, with the second volume released in March 2019. Both albums were huge hits, reaching number one on the Amazon R&B charts!!
To commemorate the 15th anniversary of "Takafumi Onishi's THE NITE" in October 2019, the release of the third series has been decided!!
This time, the concept is "to create a relaxed, adult atmosphere like you're spending time in a bar," and the subtitle has been decided as "Romantic Groove"!!
As with previous releases, this album contains carefully selected songs from the vast selection of songs available to DJ Takafumi Onishi, and once again, it is a special release delivered in radio format with commentary on the songs by DJ Takafumi Onishi himself!!
"With gratitude for the past 15 years, I want to send this tonight with you and music...Romantic Groove" by DJ Takafumi Onishi
