About the album

A monumental release in 90s Japanese alternative music, かせきさいだぁ≡ is the highly influential debut album from the rapper and indie-pop artist of the same name. Emerging from the vibrant Shibuya-kei and early Japanese hip-hop scenes, the album masterfully blends Kaseki Cider's laid-back, poetic spoken-word rap with nostalgic, sample-heavy tracks that evoke the golden era of City Pop.

Featuring iconic classics like the breezy "じゃっ夏なんで" and "冬へと走りだそう", the album established Kaseki Cider as a distinct voice who could weave everyday observations into cinematic sonic landscapes. Long out of print on physical formats, the classic album saw a highly anticipated reissue on vinyl and cassette tape in July 2024.
