Comment from suisoh:
“I am honored to have had the opportunity to work on this song together with Takahiro Yamada from ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION.
When working on a collab, I place the utmost importance on synergy, so I took a different approach to this project compared to when I worked on “MONOCHROME”. This track is a fusion between band sounds and samples of electronic music. For the recording, Yamada and Kiyoshi Ijichi from the ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION team were in charge of bass and drums respectively, while Yuto Shimizu from the suisoh team was on guitar. With the support of these incredibly talented musicians, we were able to complete a track that manages to be both dynamic and ethereal all at once.
I believe this song serves to encourage the new protagonists, Shirin and Shirane, along with everyone else as they embark on their journey. I would be thrilled if you listened to it over and over again.”
Comment from Takahiro Yamada
“Whenever I see how pumped the audience gets when we perform a nearly twenty-year-old track like “After Dark”, it reminds me of just how great BLEACH truly is. I’m honored to be involved in its music production once again through this cross-generation collaboration.
suisoh’s music has a broad yet intricate style, with a rich sense of imagery and progression. To complement that, I aimed for an arrangement that maintains a consistent core idea while changing how I approach each part.
The Mirrors High theme song “CRITICAL” is a dignified track harboring hidden strength. I hope that it becomes the spark that raises the players’ Spiritual Pressure!”
