Sensitivity / Melting Time [7" Vinyl]

A 90's R&B classic is reborn through the atmosphere of Tokyo.Together with the original 'Melting Time,' it marks a new chapter in today's City Pop.The New Jack Swing anthem 'Sensitivity' is reimagined by producer Initial Talk, who is active internationally.With his refined sound design - known for updating 80s-90s pop aesthetics with a modern sensibility - the original sweetness and groove are transformed into a cooler, more mellow texture.English-based R&B vocals are quietly joined by Japanese phrases, allowing Ai Ichikawa's unique warmth and nuance to surface within the sophisticated production.A balance of urban coolness and intimate warmth makes this track a true representation of 'Ai Ichikawa right now.'The coupling track 'Melting Time' is an original co-written by Ai Ichikawa and Yuki Kanesaka.Featuring contributions from monolog, Kunpei Nakabayashi, and others, it is a gentle ballad infused with elements of jazz and soul, produced between Tokyo and Massachusetts.An intersection of classic and modern sensibilities - a record that resonates comfortably across generations.
