''FEEL'' is the tenth studio album recorded by [[Amuro Namie]]. This is her first [[Wikipedia:Electronic dance music|Electronic dance music]] orientated record, as well as her first release under the [[avex trax]] established sub-label [[Dimension Point]]. The album was released in three versions: a CD+Blu-ray edition, a CD+DVD edition and a CD edition. Much like her last record ''[[Uncontrolled]]'' the album features both Japanese and English songs and composed of many different producers. This album complete a shift in style for Amuro that was first started on her eighth studio record ''[[Past Future|PAST<FUTURE]]'' in 2009. In the early 2000s Amuro started recording [[J-Hip-Hop|hip-hop]] and [[J-R&B|R&B]] music, with her sixth record being title ''[[Queen of Hip-Pop]]''. The record was produced by many people, many of which are Foreign production teams. It is her her first album since ''[[Break the Rules|break the rules]]'' in 2000 to not feature [[MICHICO]] or [[T.KURA]], and only one composition from [[Nao'ymt]] ("[[Contrail (Amuro Namie)|Contrail]]" ending up being their last track together).
