Powerful grooves and striking sound define the resurrection of\u003cbr\u003eZerosen’s legendary first album.\u003cbr\u003eZerosen was a group led during the 1970s by Katsunori Ishida, who would later gain recognition as a producer, composer, and arranger\u003cbr\u003eof numerous television and film soundtracks. With a fluid lineup and only a brief period of activity, the group disappeared almost as\u003cbr\u003equickly as it emerged. The only recordings left behind were two albums originally produced as audio component test records. Yet these\u003cbr\u003erecordings would later gain worldwide attention as landmark examples of Japanese rare groove.\u003cbr\u003eRemarkably, this debut album already presents a fully realized concept and sound. Highlights include the rolling groove and vibrant\u003cbr\u003ekeyboard work of “Scramble”, the hard-driving beat of “Circuit”, and the mellow Caribbean-infused groove of “Majo no Sasayaki”. There\u003cbr\u003eis not a weak moment to be found.\u003cbr\u003eOutstanding arrangements and performances generate a groove of exceptional power, while the album’s origins as an audio component\u003cbr\u003etest record contribute to its vivid and dynamic sonic character. Here lies crossover music in its truest sense—a timeless fusion of\u003cbr\u003emusicianship, groove, and sound quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 1.4em;\"\u003e-------------------------------------------------------------------\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThank you for looking at our listing, below are a few points to consider before making a purchase:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- All records we sell are Brand New - pre-orders will normally come sealed but if you are purchasing in stock items, please note the copy may have been unsealed for display in the shop.
