"Charlene II" (sample_1) is a recording of the updated live version they've been playing on recent tours. With a simple kick and choppy guitar work beefing up the groove, it's a far more DJ-friendly track. The flip side features "French Dip" (sample_2), a funky cut so packed with period-perfect synth-boogie funk manners that you might mistake it for an '80s production. It's billed as an advance single from a project due in 2025, so we're very curious to hear how the album turns out. (Original Japanese text by AYAM)
