Koi shiteta hi (feat. KAEDE) ['26 ver]

Artist Ryu releases his new single, "Koi Shiteta Hi," on February 6th. This ambitious track is a remake of an original song from his 3rd Album, Next Step, now featuring the fictional AI vocalist "KAEDE."

Evoking memories of gentle sunlight flickering through the trees on a cold day, this song captures the bittersweet nostalgia of seasons that can never return. It features a lyrical melody written and composed by Ryu himself, combined with straightforward lyrics that deeply resonate with listeners.

Distinct from traditional vocal synthesizers, the AI singer "KAEDE" is employed for the vocals. Her rich, human-like voice elevates the song's quality to a new level, creating a deeply immersive and emotional experience within the song's poignant world.

The cover art features model Moka Komorebi, who has served as the image model for several of Ryu's previous works. Her expression perfectly aligns with the song's imagery, adding a touch of grace to the nostalgic atmosphere reminiscent of a sunny autumn spot.
