The new song by TOMC, a beat and ambient producer active in Japan and abroad, is a stylish and emortional city funk/neo soul tune in collaboration with upcoming R&B/pop artist ISAFAT.

ISAFAT, who began playing the cello at the age of 3, is known for his ability to take charge of the entire process of writing lyrics, composing, trackmaking, and performing. For this single, ISAFAT updated the chords, replaced some parts with his playing, wrote the top line and entire lyric, and sang based on the track created by TOMC.

This song was mixed and mastered by TOMC himself, the sound design was created with a contemporary R&B pop sound in mind, akin to that of iri, rikon densetsu, etc.
