Based on phrases created around 2020, then this project began in September 2023, focusing on a live feel and a small ensemble approach, similar to the previous release.
The music features otom's signature sound, including instruments like the Fender Jazzmaster, along with lively and heavy Drum, Also drived Bass.The vocals sing about the contrasts of brightness and darkness one encounters as they grow older and chorus harmony were thoughtfully arranged.
