The music video for “Interest” from ACE COOL’s latest album, “Light and Darkness,” released last week on Wednesday, May 29th, has been released.
This music video was directed by video director MESS. You can enjoy the quirky footage featuring many ACE COOL members wearing sunglasses and black outfits, who gathered in response to a call on social media.
“Meian” is his second album, released about four years after his album “GUNJO,” which was highly praised for its high level of skill and lyricism. ACE COOL himself said of this work, “It is a very personal work that continues to answer the universal question of ‘what is happiness?’ without compromise.”
JJJ, Miru Shinoda, BFN TOKYOTRILL, Atsu Otaki, and Yuke Myras participated in the production. The piano that is spread throughout the album is by Gen Shirase, and Kento Yamada of yahyel participates on guitar, making the work full of experimental themes and musicality.
The mix was done by Atsu Otaki for 11 tracks, JJJ for “Aijou” only, and mastering was done by Mike Bozzi. The artwork was done by Atsushi Yamanaka. The CD book for this work is scheduled to go on sale this summer.
