Yukkyun releases new song “Logout Bonus” MV directed by Yurina Kaneko and starring Erika Karata

The music video for Yukkyun’s latest single “Logout Bonus” released on Wednesday, May 15th has been released.

This song is the lead single from the new album “Reincarnated Anata wo” scheduled to be released on September 11th (Wednesday), and is the first produced by Koichiro Okunaka (Vo. / Gt.) of the five-member band Emputei. the work. It is a “retirement anthem” inspired by several French movies, and is Yukkyun’s first song with a band sound.

The music video was directed by Yurina Kaneko, a film director known for the films “Stuffed Animals and Talking People Are Easy” and “Sleeping Bugs,” and actor Erika Karata played the lead role at her own request. The lonely and free time of a retired woman, a mixture of anxiety and hope, is expressed with Kaneko’s gentleness and humor.

In commemoration of the completion of this music video, a talk event titled “Yukkyun’s Rose-Colored Shooting Star Shower – 29 Years Old Nationwide” will be held on May 26th (Sunday), which is Yukkyun’s birthday, at LOFT HEAVEN in Shibuya, Tokyo. On the day, guests Erika Karata and Yurina Kaneko will be invited to talk about the behind-the-scenes stories that can only be heard here while watching the music video and off-shots. A zine containing photos by the music video still photographer Kaho Okazaki is also scheduled to be released.

[Yukkyun comment]

When “Logout Bonus” was being completed, I had a chance to meet Erika Karata.
He listened to the song and said, “I want to be in the music video.” It was Shimokitazawa at the end of the year.
I felt as though I had written this song for that reason, and on my way home I was already thinking about Yurina Kaneko.
After a while, while eating Thai food with Kaneko-san, I suddenly remembered and asked him to shoot a music video.
Mr. Kaneko cried with joy, protected the world of this song, and was amused by it.
I have always supported Karata-san and Kaneko-san, and I thought I would continue to do so.
I also want to know and remember the people who see this work. Thank you to everyone who cooperated.
Also, during the filming, someone noticed that my rhythmic gymnastics ribbon skills were getting better and better.

[Yurina Kaneko comment]

Before spring came, I had a lot of bad things going on at work and wanted to throw it all away.
Yukkyun played this song to me at a Thai restaurant and I burst into tears.
Yukkyun is watching over me, who has not been reborn! I had fun filming the music video with that in mind.
Yukkyun is making a movie with his songs. Erika Karata lived a wonderful life in the movie.
