Bon Voyage Co.

Released

Similarly to the cruise ship vibes of Tropical Dandy, Bon Voyage Co. is even more suave and assured. Hosono makes allusions to an exhaustive list of famous songs: “Salt Peanuts,” “Sea Cruise,” “Great Balls of Fire,” and many more, always weaving them into his sensibilities, which even including breezy takes on Japanese traditional music. It’s as if Hosono tries on the entire 1970s western rock canon on for size before deciding to forge his own way forward.
