Yume Vinyl Review

The band Lamp has been around for a while, and they have been able to create some really nice albums along the way. The most recent release, Yume (literally Dream), is another fine example of their abilities. This album shows a bit of a departure from their usual bossa nova leanings in favor of more lounge jazz-esque material. The result is an album that has enough depth to reward keen listeners, but it is ultimately a mood album designed to be played in the background during a relaxing evening.

The songs on this album are a beautiful combination of genres. There are elements of city pop, funk, and AOR all present in these tracks. These elements combine to create a unique sound that is both nostalgic and contemporary at the same time. Some of the songs on this album, such as “Ri Yao Ri nooBie re/Out on Sunny Sunday,” and “Ai noYan Xie /Words of Love” have a very strong connection to the artwork featured on the cover. These paintings are filled with soft hues and delicate strokes of paint, which are the perfect accompaniment to Lamp’s music.

Other songs, such as “Chun noKong /Spring Emptiness” and “Jin Ye moJun niterehuonkoru /Telephone Call,” have an urban flair that reflects the vibrant colors of the artwork. These songs also showcase some of the band’s ability to create a sense of nostalgia through their use of acoustic guitar and vocal harmony.

The vocals on this album are beautiful and powerful at the same time. The way the lyrics are written and delivered creates a very emotional atmosphere.

Throughout the album, there are also some acoustic guitar solos and instrumental sections that add some extra emotion to the overall tone of the album.

Yume is a great addition to the Lamp discography and demonstrates their ability to create an emotional landscape through their music. The songs on this album are a beautiful mixture of genres that will appeal to a variety of music fans. This album is definitely worth checking out if you are interested in the genres of city pop, funk, or AOR.
