I've actually been getting more into dahlia's works recently, so this looks pretty interesting.

It's quite a nice album! Mostly electro-sounding, with a few quiet tracks. It can be sampled at iTunes Japan.
I really love all of dahlia's recent albums: "Nude Lumière", "Beautiful But Noir", "Musics for my funeral". Check them out when you have a chance. :)
