Releasenotes:
Don't miss the incredible debut album 'Slowly Better' from the Tokyo-based band
'Oversleep Excuse' featuring a steelpan and made up of American, British, and
Japanese musicians.

Their compositions have a special beauty often heard in Nordic music: close your
eyes and feel like you are walking in the air. Yet the standout feature of their
music is the use of a steelpan, the musical instrument originating from
Trinidad, which they use to bring a unique dimension to their songs and have
created their own signature sound. Once you listen to Oversleep Excuse's music,
the bitter-sweet soundscape shall come into your heart!! The mixed musicality of
each member's home country and the gentle voice of the vocalist Matthew Guay,
also consolidate their originality.

The fantastically catchy melody of the opener track 'Slowly Better' raises the
curtain of the album with an impressive piano riff. This is followed by 'Bar
Mescalito', with an upbeat, straightforward electric guitar-driven sound also
heard in 'It's Alright', ballads such as 'Hope Is Always Somewhere' and 'Sad
Song'. Later there are several vocal-less electronica tracks such as 'Midnight
on the Highway'. All the songs are masterpieces and symbols for Oversleep
Excuse's broad talents!!

Also, please don't miss the lovely artwork by illustrator, Hanako Clulow.
