'Especia, Horie-Kei (west area of Shinsaibashi in Osaka) girls group with many regretted their breaking up in 2017 and the loss of their high musicality, will release their 1st album 'GUSTO' on vinyl record at last! The original album has still been receiving a high evaluation and all of those 16 songs in the album will be fully recorded on 2LPs. A lead track 'No1 Sweeper' starting from blistering sax solo with 80's funk sound is one of their masterpieces, and 'Kurukana' composed by Maserati Nagisa (LUVRAW+Pellycolo) is a great hit, which went ahead of the times by being vividly aware of Vaporwave. 'Abyss' offered by Indonesian band: ikkubaru is a refreshing classic CITY POP, and 'YA ME TE! (GUSTO Ver)' composed by Kenta Matsukuma is worth listening to with 90's fusion sound. Also, the rest of tracks was polished up to the novelty music tracks inspired by disco AOR. Introduction of Especia: Especia was a disco idol group formed in June 2012 as a 10-member group. They disbanded in March 2017. The name Especia means spice in Spanish.
