"Overwritten and disappearing by current happiness."
A poignant nostalgia where the fading past intersects with present happiness, returning now with a fresh voice and a brand-new arrangement.
Originally included in Ryu's 7th album Kioku as a Vocaloid (Hatsune Miku) track, the song will be reborn and released on March 27th as "Overwrite ('26ver) feat. NAMI", featuring the virtual AI vocalist, NAMI. With lyrics by Mii and composition by Ryu, this track captures a beautifully bittersweet scene. While living happily with a current partner ("He"), the protagonist realizes that memories with a past love ("You") are fading. With no intention of going back, the memories that once meant everything are gradually "overwritten" by present happiness. These delicate feelings are expressed through unadorned and straightforward lyrics.
Having the AI vocalist sing this original composition brings out its bittersweet nature more directly. The lyrical and emotional melody reaches a new step thanks to the fresh arrangement and the expressive AI vocals that differ distinctly from the original Vocaloid version.
The jacket artwork once again features Moka Komorebi, who serves as the visual muse across several of Ryu's albums. Showing a different facet of her expressions with each release, her presence beautifully complements this poignant tale of a protagonist moving forward while occasionally reflecting on fading memories.
Ryu started DTM in university and has been creating mainly songs that he wants to listen to. Based on J-POP, his songs feature lyrical melodies and carefully written lyrics about joy and sadness, combined with the natural singing of Hatsune Miku in a sad but easy-to-hear way. The song Groove of Love from his 6th album was used as a commercial song for the Spoon app.
