A full-length Vocaloid album featuring IA by Sugiyama "Thunder" U1, bassist of cult punk band "Modoku" and active as a Vocaloid producer since 2008. Techno pop created entirely with hardware synths with the theme of "SF and cats". Cover artwork is an original illustration by Morizono Miruku, "Queen of Ladies' Comics". Liner notes by Saeki Kenzo.
<Excerpt from liner notes by Kenzo Saeki>
The flavor is rich from the rhythm box "po-po-po" sound in the intro of the first song, "Run For The Stars". There are no songs that start with this mid-tempo po-po-po these days. All the synth sounds tickle your memory without waste. No software synths, 80s synths including roland tr-808, rhythm machines, all vintage machines or clones. There is a singing voice with the ultimate emptiness, "Vocaloid". It's SF. It's the voice of a machine. No, maybe Vocaloid isn't even a machine. It's the ultimate cybernetic art. Its philosophical significance is actually what's important. I'd like to have a neo-academic scholar from 1982 explain it. That's the kind of literary approach. Vocaloid's "emptiness" has yet to be properly looked at with romanticism. Sugiyama's approach has properly evolved 40 years of New Wave. Great!
