In a city paralyzed by illusions, a single, elegant gaze dissects the truth.

New York, 1999. While the masses panic over the Y2K bug and drown in golden fever, one man watches the charade unfold without ever wrinkling his perfectly tailored midnight-blue bespoke suit. Driven by the cool, syncopated rhythms of acid jazz, a walking upright bass, and a haunting muted trumpet, this track embodies the sheer intellect and cold calculation of aristocratic detective Rintaro Kadowaki.

"Welcome to the laboratory, my dear. Let me dissect this charade you keep."

With a clinical blade and absolute Noblesse oblige, he exposes the protocol of treason. Immerse yourself in the ultimate cyber-noir soundtrack and witness the anatomy of a lie.

Artist Profile

SHIONO
The Heart of Twilight Master A visionary composer and producer who translates the unseen textures of narrative into sound. Shiono crafts every composition and lyric for Twilight Master, turning the unsaid spaces in Twilight Masters novels into immersive musical worlds that both complement and expand the original stories. Shiono hears the margins of a story and paints them with tone, timbre, and silence, creating music that reads like a second language of the text.

Twilight Master
Alongside my day job, I continue to pursue creative writing. I constantly strive to maintain an objective, third-party perspective on history and detail throughout my creative process. It's a continuous cycle of envisioning scenes and imagery while adding text and words, but my guiding principle is to craft quality works. I believe that without fulfilling my social responsibility as an author, my work holds no value. Thus, I adhere to the creed that -The pen is mightier than the sword-. Also, I am a multilingual creator who continues to explore and express emotions that cannot be fully captured by words, translating them into high-quality music that deepens and extends the experience of my work. Welcome to my Universe!
