Another song where the bass plays the melody - album art for Have You Met Miss Jones? - InstrumentalHave You Met Miss Jones? - Instrumental

Great melodic guitar solo at the start. I'm fond of the guitar tone as well, sounds like a tube screamer

Reminds me a little of another asian indie rock song - album art for Spring SpringSpring Spring

opening synths cut out to just a rumbly bass line and the vocals. reminds me of the intro to album art for 踊り子踊り子. i love this combination a lot (rumbly bass line and vocals), want to use it sometime in a song

fantastic guitar solo, quotes the melody

The start of the guitar solo here quotes a motif from the song right before it on the album, album art for Spring SpringSpring Spring (motif introduced around 0:20 in original song)

I also really like the phrasing in this solo, it's very relaxed and spacey.

Listen to how the bass and drums cut out at the climax of the solo, it's incredible

The intro riff here is “recontextualized” when the drums come in - you count the riff one way before it comes in and differently after. Specifically you count the one on a different note.

Similar to the start of album art for Time & PlaceTime & Place

The vocal line is incredibly creative here, sounds #chromatic to me

great #synth tones

love that it continues the #melody off of album art for DreamDream

This has the greatest #guitar #solo of any No Party for Cao Dong song I've ever heard.

The solo on this song is entirely carried by the rhythm section - the guitar part itself is actually quite simple. Listen to how the everything cuts out in the middle of the solo to emphasize the climax.

It's also quite melodic! There's very little shredding.

Insanely sick bass solo, easily my favorite rendition of this jazz standard. Love how the bass plays the melody of the song.
