What a fresh take by Shigeto! It's a little curious that Apple Music has this album labeled as 'R&B/Soul' but I guess if you take that genre broadly, it fits.

Shigeto shows on 'Cherry Blossom Baby' how alluring consistent evolution for an artist can feel when it's done well. On one hand, this is a fresh take on a Shigeto album with more features and more melodic groove than others, but it still possesses the signature interlocking and layering rhythm that Zachary is known for.

I would highly suggest giving this one a listen. There are gems throughout. My only complaint is that the most tracks feels like they end quicker than they should. Maybe we can get an 'extended cut' edition where 'Ready. Set. Flex.' can really drive into some liquid dnb and 'Honey High and Blue' can finish with a 5 minute sax solo...
