INFOMATION

Longing but new, a songbook of the near future.

The concept of lasah’s first mini album is to make audible the literary works of science fiction.

Arthur C. Clark, Ray Bradbury, Anthony Burgess, Phillip K. Dick, James Tiptree Jr., Kurt Vonnegut Jr. - the innocence of robots and effusion of human emotion portrayed in the writers' works are converted into music by splendid composers such as Yasunori Mitsuda well-known for his works in “Chrono Trigger” and “Xenogears”, sasakure.UK, Kikuo, kurage_p, CaptainMirai and whoo, under the self-produce of lasah.

All lyrics are written in english by lasah herself who spent her childhood in the United States, fond of reading the original texts of science fiction.

The tracks swallow down diverse genres of music such as electronica, EDM, house, drum-n-bass, techno-pop and indie rock, and together with the lyrics that can be called “another-stories” of each work, they are seeded into one piece of work with uniformity through the sometimes gently whispering, sometimes powerful voice of lasah.

The jacket illustration is by the spirited artist Kana Ohtsuki, and the artwork design is by Yumasaito.
