Seiichi Daimo has released In The Inbetween and this EP will be finding its spot in the mainstream music industry quickly. The four track EP really shows the musical range that Diamo both as a vocalist and a musician.
The EP has a very raw and natural feel, which benefits the album overall. It feels organic and really shows the creative process and musical experiment that Daimo was working on with this record. Seiichi shows his natural Japanese-American heritage throughout this EP which feels like a modern yet throwback take on acoustic, indie songwriting. At times the songs feel original and unique but the instruments have a familiar tone to that of indie rock which is currently on the charts today like Mumford and Sons.
In The Inbetween starts off with "In The Inbetween." This song has an upbeat feel and really introduces the audience to the sound that will be featured throughout the album. The songs flow into the next and really tell a story with the lyrics and melodies.
The middle tracks, "Can You Hear Me" and "Wishing Well" show more instrumental range but feature the tones and sounds that had been established with the title track.
The album concludes with "Moon" which features a striped down approach to the song that fans had gotten used to in the early songs. This is the song that is most likely to have the most mainstream appeal because the lyrics are honest and the song feels really new and organic.
At first this might seem like a very out of the box take on indie rock but after a few listens of all four tracks featured on In The Inbetween it is Daimo's talent that comes across in between each listening of the album and will have fans wanting more from this up and coming musician.
