This release is a cover of Kaede by Spitz, performed using the voice of Kasane Teto.
The production stays faithful to the original, carefully preserving its emotional melody and quiet atmosphere. Rather than making major changes to the arrangement, the focus was on building the track carefully, one sound at a time.
The vocal is performed by Kasane Teto. Her straightforward voice brings out the loneliness and warmth within Kaede in its own way.
Kaede has been one of my favorite songs for a long time, so I wanted to create this cover with genuine appreciation and respect for the original.
Whether you already know the song or are hearing Kaede for the first time, I hope this version allows you to enjoy the beauty of the original in a slightly different form.
Based in Tokyo, Mashimo is a solo artist weaving warm yet bittersweet J-POP and lyrical pop melodies. Featuring the vocal of Vocaloid, Mashimo has been immersed in music since childhood, starting with the acoustic guitar, and began full-scale composing and arranging in 2025. Inspired by the desire to express the fleeting melancholy and hope of everyday life through music, Mashimos work is deeply influenced by the songs of Spitz. In 2025, Mashimo released the debut single Tonikaku Mae e via Tunecore. The song delicately portrays people carrying sadness and doubt while still moving forward, connecting each listeners yesterday and tomorrow through its music. Although live performances have yet to be held, Mashimo is preparing to take the stage in upcoming shows. Mashimos music, while featuring a vocaloid, retains the warmth and lyrical sensibility reminiscent of Spitz. Specializing in conveying the simultaneous presence of melancholy and hope, Mashimo creates a unique emotional sway in music. Even at this early stage, the distinct musical core and worldview set Mashimo apart from other artists.
