Aru-2 to release new album “Anida” – pre-release single featuring Daichi Yamamoto

Beatmaker/producer Aru-2 has announced that he will release his new album, “Anida,” on Wednesday, June 5th.

This work is an archive of the artist’s musical experiences condensed over the four years since his previous work “Little Heaven,” and includes many songs born from sessions with artists from all over the country, such as Green Assassin Dollar, Kzyboost, SBK, Asei Muraguchi, and STUTS, as well as songs featuring talented rappers such as Daichi Yamamoto, Campanella, JJJ, MUTA, NF Zessho, Sharaku, and ISSUGI. It is said to be a rich work that features Aru-2’s delicate and euphoric vocals and a mellow groove throughout the entire work.

In addition, the lead single “Ase” featuring Daichi Yamamoto from the album was released today, Wednesday, May 29th. Kzyboost participates in this song on lead synth, and the song is full of Daichi Yamamoto’s skillful rap skills and playfulness.

The artwork was done by photographer Saeka Shimada. Mixing and mastering were done by Aru-2 himself. An analog version of the album is also scheduled for release in autumn.
