WAR GAME (feat. DJ SHUN)

Beyond the HIGH SCORE, someone's life disappears.
Faster. More efficiently.

YAMAAN's production brings together nostalgic 8-bit electronics and a heavy, ominous contemporary beat.
Across it, nanorunamonai's lyricism, shifting flow, and wide range of vocal characters move at full speed.

"WAR GAME" depicts the distortion of an age in which war is remotely controlled and processed as though it were a video game.

With the push of a button on a controller, fire is unleashed somewhere in the world.
Beyond the screen are not targets, but soldiers, families, and lives that were supposed to have a tomorrow.

DJ SHUN's scratches cut rhythmically through the spaces between words and beats, echoing like fragments of broken communication.
Toward the end, those fragments begin to invade the song's landscape like noise leaking out of the game screen and into reality.

The cover artwork was created by Chilean artist mariapepinos.
The soldier is rendered in particles of light, visualizing the unsettling sensation of a human life being reduced to a game character or a piece of targeting data.

Reality or game?
Who is controlling it, and who is being targeted?

In the end, the crosshairs turn toward
the one watching the screen.
