【FAKE★STAR】1st Album 'Midnight Latte Sessions' to be Released on June 17! CD & Digital Distribution to Start Simultaneously!!

Music that resonates deeply, gently, and kindly with each listen. FAKE★STAR's 1st album 'Midnight Latte Sessions' was produced under the concept of "a sound trip to unwind your heart at the end of the day and quietly regain your true self." The sweet, enveloping whisper voice of Vo.&Gt. C, the melting low tones of the 6-string fretless bass played by leader Ba. HIDENO, and the delicate, warm drumming of Dr. PICO blend together to create an ultimate healing experience. This work includes a total of 6 carefully selected tracks, such as 'Hoshifuru Yoru ni ne' (On a Starry Night), which sings of connections with important people who are far away; 'STORY', which depicts the preciousness of ordinary daily life; and 'Boku no Takaramono' (My Treasure), themed around returning to one's true self. Music to cherish yourself for a few minutes before falling asleep has been completed here. Midnight Latte Sessions Thoughts Behind the Songs (From Self-Liner Notes) 'Hoshifuru Yoru ni ne': Even if people are separated, they continue to have a deep soul connection, and at unexpected moments, they share the feeling of living in the same time. This song is not about forgetting important people, but about viewing parting not as an 'end' but as a 'change of form,' a melody to continue walking with warm memories. 'STORY': The theme is the realization that it is not about pursuing special days, but that the 'ordinary daily life' where you can laugh with someone is already an irreplaceable story (STORY). Happiness is not something to be sought far away, but something to be 'noticed' in familiar people and moments. The song sings of the preciousness of 'feeling this very moment' rather than completing life. The warm exchange of life, where happiness shines because of suffering and people are healed and saved by others, breathes within this song. 'Boku no Takaramono': As people grow up, they often feel they have lost something important, but perhaps it is not lost, just left in the depths of their heart. 'Treasure' is not a tangible object, but the former self who could laugh innocently. In this song, 'home' does not simply mean a place to return to, but 'a place where you can return to your true self.' It is a work like a bookmark for quietly regaining your true self by recalling the former self who could laugh innocently.
