Honest Feeling Album - Clear/White Smoke Vinyl

Honest Feeling Album is the highly anticipated second album from Tokyo-based composer, producer, singer-songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Hakushi Hasegawa (they/them). Based in Tokyo, Japan, Hakushi is the first Japanese artist signed to Flying Lotus’ Brainfeeder label.

Widely regarded as one of the most innovative voices emerging from Japan's contemporary music scene, Hakushi continues to push the boundaries of modern composition, seamlessly weaving together jazz, pop, J-Rock, electronic music, and avant-garde experimentation into a sound entirely their own.

For Honest Feeling Album, Hakushi expands their creative vision by collaborating with HaHa and The Hairpins as a full backing band, bringing a newfound sense of scale, energy, and emotional depth to the music. The album's lead single, "The Owner of Sweetness" serves as a stunning introduction—a sweeping, genre-defying ballad that effortlessly fuses jazz virtuosity, J-rock intensity, and intricate electronic production.

The album also features an impressive cast of collaborators, including Japanese electronic pioneer tofubeats, acclaimed South Korean singer-songwriter Lang Lee, Tsukino Mito, and Accorinrin of the celebrated punk band Otoboke Beaver, helping shape a vibrant and unpredictable sonic universe that is uniquely Hakushi's.
