[Comment from RiE MORRiS]
I approached the production process as if I was meditating, trying to extract TAAR’s true essence. The sound is very sophisticated and full of speed, but at the core, like the eye of a typhoon, I felt a Zen-like stillness, so I tried to express that in the song. I had never done anything like that before, so it was a very fresh production. And maco marets’ rap also put that stillness into words, and it made the song feel closer and deeper all at once. I’m truly grateful to have had the opportunity to work with these two wonderful people.
[Maco Marets Comment]
RiE’s vocals easily cross the boundaries of genres, running freely and supplely. In order not to be shaken off by the powerful charm and speed of emotion, I tried to respond with as much rap as I could… the whole production process was more thrilling than ever. I feel that this is a special song that gives maco marets a glimpse into a new realm. Please give it a listen.
[TAAR Comment]
The beauty of her top line, her soft consonants and her expansive, enveloping voice, her subtle tone control that expresses her will in her lyrics. There are too many things to list to explain the greatness of her singing. Her “music,” which she paints with her voice as a free-flowing brush, gives listeners a moment of freedom in their daily lives. I was one of those people.
