Bossa Nova 2001

Bossa Nova 2001 is the seventh studio album by Japanese pop band Pizzicato Five. It was released on June 1, 1993 by the Nippon Columbia imprint Triad.[4] The band co-produced the album with acquaintance and fellow Shibuya-kei artist Cornelius.[5] Following the house music-oriented Sweet Pizzicato Five the previous year, Bossa Nova 2001 signalled a return to the band's 1960s and 1970s-influenced pop style, mixed with elements of alternative dance.
