Sababa 5 and vocalist Yurika are back on the exclusive Middle Eastern grooves with their newest double-sided 7″ collaboration titled Tokyo Midnight. A dazzling encounter of cultures, inspired by the funky and exotic melodies of Sababa 5 and the resplendent Japanese words of Yurika. Title track “Tokyo Midnight” opens with a groovy guitar riff and continues into an upbeat rhythmic workout, complete with a funky bassline and ululating keyboards. Yurika’s enchanting voice ties things together in a soft yet hypnotic musical whirlwind. On the B-side, “Nasnusa”, a beautiful guitar solo flows into a captivating rhythm inspired by traditional Mizrahi music. Yurika’s delicate vocals evoke a love story: a couple watches the sunset as the gates to a new world begin to open. As Nasnusa fades into the light, her lover recalls her beauty and reflects fondly on the wonderful time they shared together.01. Tokyo Midnight02. Nasnusa
