The 18-year-old super-new-generation singer-songwriter/trackmaker "cat biscuit," who creates genre-defying outsider music, has completed their first full-length album featuring 7 tracks, releasing it on Wednesday, December 3rd!
This album is a work woven through the unstable season of adolescence,
a document of a wavering youth oscillating between the dark corners of a mind consumed by rumination and the faint glimmers of hope that still shine somewhere.
It contains songs that seem to transform those unspoken mental habits-like endlessly replaying the same thoughts in a closed room-into the very structure of sound.
They feel ephemeral and lonely, yet somehow warm.
Contradictory emotions breathe simultaneously within them, leaving a mysterious resonance that deepens with each listen.
The album carries the unique emotional turbulence of adolescence, with an unseen loneliness running beneath the surface.
Yet this atmosphere is never stifling; like the faint light breaking through the pre-dawn sky, it distinctly seeps with the wish that "kindness may exist in the world to come."
Electronic, band sounds, and ambient textures blend together, creating a soundscape that mirrors the complex inner world of young people living in the city.
The seventh track features a remix by Cwondo, the solo project of No Buses' guitarist/vocalist Kondo Taisei, who freely traverses electronic and sampling genres.
While preserving the original's shadows, the sound particles are finely rearranged, transforming it into a unique remix blending restlessness and transparency.
This album embraces even chaos and melancholy as "a single landscape," scooping up the minute glimmers of light beyond.
"cat biscuit" freely unleashes their talent, carving out a unique path that transcends specific genres.
They stand as one of the artists pioneering the Reiwa music scene with their distinctive approach.
