Shinsuke Sugawara & 6th Generation - SUGAROKU

It's not just about quality.
A heartwarming listen.
Shochikubai Records' first collaboration project.

A collaborative album between traveling singer-songwriter Sugawara Shinsuke, whose roots are in soul and R&B, and beatmaker 6th Generation, whose acclaim is growing year by year, including releases from Germany!

Genre-less activities with roots in soul and R&B.
Sugawara Shinsuke is a singer who sometimes shakes the depths of people's hearts and sometimes surprises us with his bizarre ideas.
He also produces sampling-based music centered around 90's hip hop.
6th Generation also produces songs.

They collaborated on 6th Generation's first album, "The Right Way," and their second album, "Unstoppable."
A live session with one singer and one DJ. The two, who have been praised for their musical compatibility, have completed a collaborative album.

"Rainbow Gold" and "Talk The Night" feature Sugawara Shinsuke's sophisticated performance of 6th Generation's melodic tracks.
"Practice ~S mind zube~" and "SAETERU" are progressive club sounds that will inevitably lift your spirits.

"A Fun Holiday" is a work that allows readers to fully enjoy the unique worldview of poetry that is characteristic of Sugawara Shinsuke.
The final song on the album is a family song, a wonderful ballad titled "Kawa no Ji" which is themed around the eldest son.

A steady studio session where we create something from nothing together.
He has a great sense of music and occasionally shows his heartfelt side.

After comparing each other's images, what remains is what is human.
This is what the two have in common and what is the best part of their collaboration on this project.
I hope this song will reach people in these difficult times. Contains 10 songs!
