this is a lovely soundtrack album produced by k-taro takanami. i'm not sure what it's a soundtrack for, but the title translates to "tasty connection", the cover has a couple of wine glasses and there are recipes for soup in the booklet!

there are no really obvious electronic instruments on this album and there is a fairly wide range of real instruments played from accordion to violin to banjo! in places it sounds like tokyo's coolest combo, although there's a lot more variety in the sounds (and a lot more musicians involved).
