Artist's Comment
For the avant-opening theme, we asked Haruka Shimotsuki and Mineko Yamamoto, two integral pillars of the Atelier series soundtracks, to provide the vocals. While the song was originally conceived of as a solo vocal track, I convinced sound director Saito to let me do things this way (lol). HIROTOMO is on bass, Miyoshi on guitar, and Mukoyama on violin. We were instructed by Mr. Jin, the scenario writer, to make this sound like an anime opening theme song. Just the other day, I attended the concert commemorating the twentieth anniversary of the Atelier series, and I saw just how excited the crowd was when Haruka Shimotsuki and Mineko Yamamoto were singing. I thought then that I’d love to write a song like that, so I really thought about the live performance aspect when I wrote this. (Yano)
