At candle artist Kawate Akane's solo exhibition "Hokorobi" held in Koenji, Tokyo in June 2023, the song was performed for the first time during a piano performance at the venue.
Hokorobi has the meaning of "a little loosening of something that is tightly bound," and was inspired by the way of being and the words that Kawate Akane himself expresses and cherishes.

She used linen fabric during her recordings, giving warmth and softness to the upright piano's tone. Piano music has a gentle and slow lovely melody that invites the listener to a time of peace.

Flysound will continue to be in charge of the recording engineer and mastering of the previous work.
