7 years since blue marble's "full color", the songwriting/production duo formed of Shock Tarō and Ton-chan is back with a first full album as Mukaju Dan. Their sound is self-described as "Hyper Technology Pops", a blend of techno-pop and city pop with soft female vocals remindful of early Pizzicato Five or Ōnuki Taeko, the result sounding both new and nostalgic! The featured vocalist is named Misaki.
