Formed in 2019, Yutai Communications, a three-piece unit from Kyoto, have continued their meteoric rise, performing at numerous festivals and events. With lyrics that resonate warmly and nostalgically across dimensions, and soundscapes that capture serene moments, they deliver their true essence in tracks like 'Ko no Nami Ma de Ikitsugi shite'. Their distinctive pop sensibilities shine through in 'Yu,' and the track 'Ollie (Junrei suru Kigo),' a live favorite, gained further attention with an animated music video by filmmaker hewa. The album also features 'HOLIDAY,' a track provided to the video production company P.I.C.S. The vinyl release will include all seven original tracks, plus two bonus tracks: ' *,' previously only available on the CD version, and a newly recorded acoustic version of 'Yu,' making a total of nine tracks. Comment from paya (Yutai Communications): 'I'm thrilled when I think about the gaze woven into the act of dropping the needle. I love the name 'Junrei suru Kigo' because it feels so fitting, knowing that our footprints will eventually fade away. I'm delighted that we can release this work again on vinyl.
