Tao and Saku Debut Albums Link Into One Story

The two debut albums are built as a linked pair, with each singer's tenth track flowing into the other's first, so listeners are meant to loop both records as one continuous story.

Tao and Saku Debut Albums Link Into One Story

Virtual singers Tao and Saku mark their first anniversary with debut albums. Tao's COUNTER WAVE releases July 29 and Saku's REVERSE WAVE on August 26, each with five new songs plus five prior singles. The albums are designed to connect, with Tao's tenth track leading into Saku's first and vice versa. Producers include Suiso, Daoko, Pa's Lam System, and KOTONOHOUSE.

Tao and Saku, virtual singers under Pony Canyon's HAMMER COLLECTIVE label, celebrate their first anniversary with debut albums that are designed to be heard as a single loop. Tao's COUNTER WAVE and Saku's REVERSE WAVE each carry five new tracks alongside five previously released singles, and the track order is intentional: Tao's tenth song leads into Saku's first, while Saku's tenth connects back to Tao's opener.

In a roundtable with KAI-YOU, producers Suiso and Daoko discussed their contributions. Suiso, who worked with KOTONOHOUSE on Tao's single Fukashin, said the collaboration was a new challenge. Daoko, who wrote Saku's debut song Silent Prism, described meeting Saku to shape the track's core.
