1970年代の伝説の高校生フォークロックバンド「銀河鉄道」のリード・ヴォーカル、ヨシオ・J・マキ(牧良夫)の29年ぶりのソロアルバム “the first and the last”。銀河鉄道解散後1970年代後半、カリフォルニア州に移住、アメリカ人に帰化。以来、ロサンゼルスを中心に音楽・映像プロデューサー、アーティスト、ハリウッド俳優として現在も日米で精力的に活動中。1993年にMIDI, INC.からリリースされた1stソロアルバム「Over the Streams」同様、本アルバムも、ある人には懐かしく、またある人には新鮮なAORアルバムに仕上がっている。
The lead vocalist of the legendary 1970’s folk/rock band “Ginga Tetsudo", Yoshio J. Maki (a.k.a. Yoshio Maki) releases his long-awaited album, “The First and the Last", 29 years after his solo debut “Over the Streams". Following the breakup of Ginga Tetsudo, Yoshio moved to California in the late 70’s, becoming an U.S. citizen and actively working as a music and video producer, recording artist, and actor. Continuing in the AOR tradition of Over the Streams, his new album The First and the Last delivers a perfect blend of gentle nostalgia and fresh folk-jazz sound.

After three years, beloved folk duo GINTE2 returns with an energetic and heartfelt mini-album, Harana. Filled with sweeping, poetic love songs (“Harana”, “Okurimono”), playfully adventurous diversions (“Toroketeru Tairiku”), and messages of longing for friends passed on (“Kanadebito”), the EP offers a colorful mix of what GINTE2 does best: crafting grounded, deeply personal musical stories that continue to resonate long after they’ve finished.
The inimitable Japanese duo Ginte2 returns with My Life, one of their most enjoyable and adventurous albums to date. The album succeeds in delivering the best elements of Ginte2’s brand: breezy, acoustic folk (“Kuma san,” “Pandora”), bright, bluesy rock (“Matsuda san no Obaachan”), whimsical worldly throwbacks (“Mishinaru Fukei,” “My Life”), and wistful nostalgia (“Natsuno Takaramono”). The band, however, is most moving at its simplest, and My Life’s standout track “Kimino Akari” proves that Ginte2’s work shines brightest when the longings of the heart are laid bare.

Treasures in Heaven – NCM2 CHOIR
A year and a half since their last release, NCM2 Choir returns reinvigorated with their latest album, Treasures in Heaven.
A blend of classic and contemporary, the album features the exciting addition of members Junseok Lee and Erise Doi while delivering timeless hymns like “Jesus Loves Me" and “Treasures in Heaven"–an NCM2 favorite composed 30 years ago and recorded here for the first time.
NCM2 also applies their sophisticated harmonies to a broader musical landscape with their unique renditions of popular Korean praise song “Ha Na Nim Eun Reul Ji Khi Si Neun Ja" and ”Von guten Machten," a song based on a beloved German poem by Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
“Hanamo – 花も" | NCM2 CHOIR“ Acclaimed Japanese-American gospel choir NCM2 is back with Hanamo, their latest studio album which features the soulful talents of new member and lead vocalist Junseok Lee. From an inspired cover of the hit “You Raise Me Up” to the J-pop master piece “Nada Sousou,” this album offers a novel yet nostalgic twist on some of the most beloved pop and gospel songs of the decade.
