ローラ・ドレが手がけるのは、和楽器と80・90年代のレトロ・シンセサイザーのサウンドに彩られた現代エレクトロニック・ミュージック。インストアルバム「京都の夢」は、夢も野心もないまま生きる女性・凛の成長物語を、十二曲の楽曲とともにお届けします。<凛の物語>無気力で典型的なワーカホリックの凛。ある朝目を覚ました彼女は、未来の自分に必要な「何か」を探し求める旅へと繰り出します……。奥西可琳、奥西紘子、木下知美、kay、小林あゆみによる語りとともに、特別な音楽体験をお楽しみください。

Please note: the price of $62.00 USD is a bit higher than typical 2xLP releases, and this is a reflection of the project being released completely independently, by Laura Dre. This is a special record and all aspects of the release are some of the highest quality we’ve ever seen at NCV. Unlike a traditional artist/label dynamic, Laura doesn’t need to follow that with this project - and makes considerable efforts to directly engage with her community of supporters and fans. Laura is also generously transparent, and listens to feedback from fans to create all of the dimensions of her art in new, exciting, and inspiring ways. Rest assured that the retail price reflects a sustainable contribution to the longevity of Laura Dre’s music & art, and take advantage of any of the multiple ways to connect up with her further over at lauradre.com (twitch, discord, interviews, newsletters, etc). NCV does not benefit from this above average price any differently than other titles we carry.
