Japanese singer-songwriter Ai Takeda presents *Heart*, an intimate and cinematic collection of songs that marks a new chapter in her artistic journey.

Blending ambient textures, heartfelt storytelling, and subtle jazz influences, *Heart* showcases Takeda not only as a vocalist, but also as a songwriter, composer, and arranger. With the exception of one cover song, every track was written, composed, and arranged by Takeda herself.

From the gentle optimism of "Suteki na Hito" and the nostalgic reflections of "Michi" to the a cappella beauty of "Snow", the dreamlike atmosphere of "Kakumei", and the soothing closing track "good night", each song reveals a different facet of her creative world.

Across eight tracks, including an interlude, *Heart* unfolds like a short film-exploring love, memory, solitude, and human connection with honesty and grace.

More than a collection of songs, *Heart* is a reflection of Ai Takeda's artistic voice and a meaningful step forward in her evolution as a creator and performer.
