This is the first new EP released in three years by Minori Nagashima, known as a keyboardist and arranger for "Queen Bee" and "Polkadot Stingray." She is also active as a director of large-scale art events.
The EP includes four songs inspired by the "altar," a tool used to commune with Gods and the dead. These songs make you aware of other worlds and give you the opportunity to sharpen your senses.
Prior to the release, an art installation combining the songs and 3DCG was exhibited in Tokyo and Osaka. The exhibition was very well received, and now the songs are available for download.
As a bonus track, "YOUGAN (8Way Mix Ver.)" is included. This version was mixed by well-known engineer Masahito Tobisawa, who has worked with Dragon Ash, HY, GACKT, etc., using the "8Way Reflection" 3D sound technology.
