Close your eyes and pray, baby
You know what lies ahead
Yeah, this is where the journey begins
You start to run, as fast as you can
Now you are taking off
And don't you ever fall
Now you are high above the ocean, baby
No stars, only doubts
Maybe, this is how the journey feels
Now you see the land
The land of winds and clouds
And somehow, we have lost our wings
Only if I could fly
Where would you go?
Only if i could fly
Only if I could fly
Where would you go?
Only if I could fly
Maybe you don't need wings after all

Only if I could fly
Cat Trooper
This song incorporates field recordings captured during my travels in New Zealand. I created it to express the memories of the journey, as well as the feelings and thoughts that arose while experiencing the landscapes and atmosphere of the country. I hope that listening to this song will make you feel as though you are traveling through New Zealand.
Artist Profile
Cat Trooper
Cat Trooper is a duo consisting of Ikeuchi Mansaku and Honda Michiyo. Their music is deeply influenced by the effervescent 90s house music and post-rave techno, blending elements of big beat, soul, disco and rock into a dynamic dance sound that is both energetic and carefree, with a hint of cynicism. Their songs transcend the boundaries of dance music, weaving lyrics that explore the gray areas behind love and euphoria, offering listeners a fresh perspective. Ikeuchi Mansaku and Honda Michiyo both grew up with a deep appreciation for classical music and have since absorbed a wide range of musical influences. Mansaku was involved in rock bands, while Michiyo was part of a techno unit, which broadened their musical horizons. They also co-hosted the web program MUSIC SHARE through which they introduced outstanding Japanese artists and deepened their musical views through interactions with both domestic and international artists. In recent years, both have faced bipolar disorder and were forced into a period of recuperation. However, music has been a constant support during this time, and they eventually returned to their creative endeavors. Currently, they continue their music production at their home studio in Yugawara, after leaving Tokyo. The bond between the couple, who have been supported by and share a love for music, is deeply reflected in their work.
