Up-and-coming SSW Roka from Kanagawa will release their 1st single “CUTENESS” today, November 13th (Wednesday). A music video was also released at the same time.
Roka is an artist with roots in R&B/soul music who writes, composes, and arranges himself. This is the first song that she wrote and composed, and while it shows the influence of neo-soul, it is a minimal and gorgeous song full of elegance.
Co-3oly, an 18-year-old producer living in Fukuoka who also participated in the arrangement of Mone Kamishiraishi’s solo songs, participated in the production/arrangement. Masato Fujishiro, a house engineer at origami PRODUCTIONS who has worked on songs by Ovall, Yuu Sakai, Aimyon, and others, was hired for the mix/mastering, in pursuit of a high-quality sound.
The music video was directed by art director/videographer Taiko Okamoto, and features an impressive image of the artist moving in a pure white space. Members of SAR and HALLEY also participate in the video.
