Born from the first collaboration between Maika Loubté and butaji at Maika's self-curated two-man live event moshi moshi in July 2024, their exquisite Japanese pop song "Moshi Moshi" is finally set for release on November 12 (Wed).
Opening with a shimmering ambient atmosphere and a warped synth intro, the track captures a sonic dialogue only possible between two singer-songwriters who each inhabit their own experimental yet deeply pop worlds.
The song paints a vivid portrait of parallel worlds that drift apart yet somehow cross -- memories of childhood, someone you may never meet again, and precious things you almost lost along the way.
In the music video premiering the same day at 8 PM, the echo of irreplaceable memories -- the song's central theme -- unfolds in striking shades of blue. Though Maika and butaji's worlds never truly intersect, they seem to connect somewhere beyond the frame.
Between sea and city, past and present, solitude and hope, the video resonates with a universal longing -- the quiet prayer to connect with someone.
