Creative Lab Shakumudo Returns with 'Yasashii Hi' After 10-Month Silence

Creative Lab Shakumudo, the duo of uka and Hattory, released their second digital single 'Yasashii Hi' on June 24, 2026, after a quiet 10-month period following their debut. The music video features avant-garde imagery including burning chairs. Hattory's production intent describes the song as a reflection on darkness not being special.

The music video for 'Yasashii Hi' opens with reverse-play super slow motion and ends with a scene of chairs burning. Creative Lab Shakumudo, consisting of vocalist uka and composer Hattory, went public in August 2025 with their debut single 'Wasureyuku Mono' and then went quiet for 10 months. Hattory's production intent for the new song states that darkness is not special and that even exaggerated depression will end someday. The track centers on piano and strings with a fleeting vocal, creating an unstable musical world.
