The new work by READER AND SUE, their first in 12 years, is not a lament about recent global climate anomalies, set against the backdrop of a summer evening that still holds the day's heat. Nor is it a song about the drastic decline in local summer festivals, a staple of face-to-face events, since the COVID-19 pandemic. It does not counter the education system that promotes individual respect through indifference or criticize a state that imposes many burdens on its citizens in the name of equality.
With soothing piano loops and beats, and ERA's clear, transparent vocals, this piece does not suggest that the SDGs are a global conspiracy, nor does it include phrases that make you think about the lack of responsible local disaster prevention measures.
This is a record of the summer of 2024, created by those of us born in the Showa era who experienced slightly cooler summers than today.

Recently, the child-rearing has been settled. In the meantime, their meetings were about health and chronic illnesses. Drinking white water and waking up early, they joined together again in 2024 as the aging process accelerates. The MC, who is only good for making toasts, and the DJ, who can handle everything from mastering beats to making beats to talking about his crush at the bar counter, will be circulating a circular from this town again.
