Janis Crunch / Nakamura,Haruka - 12 & 1 Song [Remastered]

Vinyl LP pressing. Digitally remastered. Kitchen. Label is proud to present 12 & 1 song, a collaboration album between Haruka Nakamura and long-time musical partner Janis Crunch. Ever since the highly successful release of Haruka Nakamura's debut album Grace, the duo had fostered an important creative partnership that arguably sparked off several popular classics of their time, with songs like "Everyday", "Ralgo" and "The Light" that resonate surely with fans. On a wintery night in 2007, the duo were in the process of a candle-lit recording session for Haruka Nakamura's solo album Grace. Instinctively, they decided to venture off the album recording and to compose a Christmas carol of their own. The track was christened "12 & 1 Song" and then published online on a time-limited basis during the Christmas season. The spontaneous sessions spawned a couple more winter-themed compositions and quickly became favorites among fans of both Haruka Nakamura and Janis Crunch. Even as the two went separate ways on to work on individual projects, their creative bond sustained this year-end tradition till a substantial collection of winter-themed songs, recorded between 2007-2011, was born.
