Fukuoka-born singer-songwriter Ryu Sakamoto has released a new Single, "ATX Inspired." ATX stands for Austin, Texas. This song expresses the feelings he had in the city where he lived while studying abroad in the United States, with a relaxed dance beat and pop melody. The lyrics, composition, and arrangement were all done by himself, and the ukulele performance by Austin-born Sho Humphries is also worth noting.
