Album Information[]
British singer-songwriter, producer, composer, remixer and international artist Bentley Jones is back with TRANS//LATION 2 - the bi-lingual sequel to his debut Japanese album. This time he's assaulting on all fronts with a personal selection of Western English standards, a handful of Japanese classics as well as brand new versions of his hit single "素直になれたら ~FINAL NIGHT~" and his artist debut "Dreams of an Absolution".
Marking his last independent release before his original debut in Asia, TRANS//LATION 2 is a send-off toasting all areas of Bentley's 8-year career in music including a duet with school friend Liz Saunders, cover tracks from his first ever UK shows and brand new re-arrangements of his biggest hits -- all produced and arranged by the man himself.
