Tokyo's Coolest Sound

This new mini-compilation soundtrack for long-running hit game "taiko no tatsujin" brings four new songs under the theme "girls pop mania". Featured artists are blue marble, Her Ghost Friend, Phenotas (band of which guitarist/composer Yamamoto Shō has produced songs for Tarte Tatin), and Tanqun (duo who disbanded last March coinciding with their junior high graduation). The artwork is by Her Ghost Friend's Ono Shinobu.

The CD really has 16 tracks, with the 4 tracks repeated in "muzukashii" (hard), "oni" (demon) and "off-vocal" mixes.

The first pressing comes with a novelty coaster.
