The collaborative single “Super Auto-bike” by Taiwanese rapper/singer/multi-instrumentalist VUIZE and Japanese singer-songwriter/producer Ai Kakihira was released today, Wednesday July 3rd.
This is the third song born at “Co-Write DAY” held in Itoshima, Fukuoka last year. The song was born from an idea that arose when the two, who spent time together in a co-write session, exchanged ideas after returning to their respective hometowns. Ai Kakihira’s catchy melody line and lyrics, and VUIZE’s light-hearted rap are exquisitely mixed into an oriental track to create an indie pop song.
The release will be made by AZIAFLY, a label born from Co-Write Day.
[Comment from Ai Kakihira]
The idea for “Super Robot Man” started when I came across a super cute Instagram post by a VUIZE girl friend.
I imagined the cute days I spent riding my motorbike through the streets of Taiwan, the time I spent making breakfast with VUIZE and SVEN in Itoshima, dancing to music, and the 8cm CD of Black Biscuits I found at a party we went to together in Fukuoka. I packed all my thoughts and memories into this album with my friends in Tokyo! I dream of the day we can play together in Japan and Taiwan!
[VUIZE Comment]
The song “Super Mobility Man” feels like Ai-chan is imagining visiting Taiwan in the future! And we’ve already turned her imagination into a song! I’m really looking forward to when she actually comes to Taiwan, and when she imagines riding a motorbike around Taiwan, “Super Mobility Man” will be the background music.
