samayuzame, an up-and-coming DIY singer-songwriter from Tokyo University of the Arts, released a new song "metaphor" today, June 26.
samayuzame is an artist who handles everything from songwriting and arranging to visual direction, and she fully demonstrates her talent in this song.
"metaphor" is a danceable song that matches samayuzame's ennui voice with an aggressive sound.
The entire song is a metaphor for "creation" (i.e., creation and childbirth), a criticism of the self that can only output through metaphor, and irony, written into a poem and sung in a chorus over four beats.
The cover, with its striking visual of a smiling woman in a heart that resembles a horrifying heart, was created by illustrator Nao Utsunomiya. The music was mixed and mastered by Ryoma Nakamura.
Under the artist name "Itoi toe," samayuzame continues to live in the world of music, providing music for Isekai-joucho's "Grayscale" and working on background music for the games "MORSOMNIA:0" and "TOWAEDEN. We can't take our eyes off her in the future.
samayuzame is an artist, producer and songwriter based in Tokyo, Japan. She has built a career around her DIY approach to music, seeing all her audio and visual works through from beginning to end. Her fragility and strength as a woman living in the present age, violent yet beautiful wordplay, and visceral sound invite listeners into a melancholic and bewitching world.
