Content and inclusion
Juri Tsuda's 2013 album includes three Happy Side ending tracks and new acoustic recordings of Twinkle Snow.
Album Title and Composition
The album title was jointly discussed by Akari Tsuda and Kenichi Arimura, hoping her voice would spread like ripples on water. The title was first set, and later, the lyrics of the song with the same name matched the original, so it was adopted as the title.
Digital carriers in 2013
On April 24, 2013, OTOTOY began offering two digital distributions: 2.8MHz DSD+mp3 and 24bit/96kHz HQD. The DSD kit includes DSF, DPP, and full mp3 files.
Two self-written lyrics were produced
The lyrics for "Special Brightness" and "Wave of Emotion" were written by Akari Tsuda. She needed to adjust the length of the words and melodies she wanted to express, while Kenichi Arimura offered advice on sound and balance; The title track also fulfilled her long-held wish to perform rock music.
Singing choices for different melodies
When Akari Tsuda talked about "Koi no Nakoi," she wanted to show a more lively side than her previous ballads due to its moderately fast and slightly upbeat melody; When singing, she focuses on maintaining the support and clarity of her voice.
Tsuda originally thought the ending theme "Thanks a lot" for the fighting game "AQUAPAZZA" should be powerful, but found it didn't match the melody; After taking the suggestion, she switched to singing with a sound that was almost like a soft hum.
"Starry Night" is Tsuda's first time facing a ballad accompanied only by piano. At first, she was uneasy, but then decided to directly present her own candor at the time and complete the performance in that direction.
