The slogan is "Sodayone!" (That's right!). Fresh, sophisticated, and technical J-Fusion presented by three legendary musicians! The Katsushika Trio, composed of three founding members of the legendary fusion band Casiopea, has completed a fresh and powerful new album that returns to the roots of classic J-Fusion, which has recently been gaining renewed attention among young listeners overseas. The album title was inspired by an incident that occurred at a concert. While hosting the MC segment after the performance, the members and fans shared a common sentiment, asking, "Isn't J-Fusion really cool?" during which the chant "Sodayone!" (That's right!) was born. Inspired by this chant, Minoru Mukaiya took on the role of producer and completed the framework of the album in a short period of time. For this album, a method was adopted where each part was recorded individually in their respective performance environments. By meticulously composing each part, they not only perfected the sophisticated arrangements characteristic of fusion music but also created a solid ensemble that highlights the individual personalities of the three members. The album features tracks that fully showcase the charm of the Katsushika Trio, including the energetic 'Twilight Run,' the title track 'SO-DAYONE!' which stands out with memorable and vibrant guitar playing, and the thrilling high-speed fusion song 'Cobalt Express.' Additionally, 'Paris-Nice,' featuring Kunihiko Murai—a mentor figure to the members—adds a sense of luxury to the album with its sophisticated and beautiful melody. Displaying a diverse musical spectrum ranging from sounds reminiscent of City Pop to sweet mid-tempo tracks and technical, funky performances, this album is the Katsushika Trio's fourth studio album and a heartfelt work that revives the allure of J-fusion in the modern era.
