Pia MUSIC COMPLEX (PMC) SPECIAL EDITION 7 Yuzu
Pia Corporation's special edition book, 'Pia MUSIC COMPLEX (PMC) SPECIAL EDITION 7 Yuzu,' from the music magazine 'Pia MUSIC COMPLEX (PMC),' is now confirmed for sale at the ongoing national arena tour, "Yuzu Acoustic Arena Tour 2026 Shinon." As a special purchase bonus at the venues, a B3 size cover poster of 'Pia MUSIC COMPLEX (PMC) SPECIAL EDITION 7 Yuzu' will be given away.
This book is the second "all about Yuzu" edition, published six years after the first 'Pia MUSIC COMPLEX (PMC) SPECIAL EDITION 2 Yuzu,' released in February 2020. It is linked to Yuzu's new album 'Shinon,' released on the same day, featuring a comprehensive special on Yuzu throughout the entire book.
The opening long interview spans 20,000 characters, where Yujin Kitagawa and Koji Iwasawa discuss the production story of 'Shinon,' an album composed entirely of new songs. There are also testimonial interviews from a creative team of top advertising industry professionals: Kota Tobata, Kenjiro Sano, Yumi Katori, and Emi Ota. The book includes a close-up on the music video shoots for the two core tracks, "Shinon" and "Ikue," featuring an interview with Yuzuha, the director of the "Shinon" music video, and a long interview with composer Marihiko Hara, who gained attention for his music and theme song for the film 'Kokuhou' and also participated in the filming of "Ikue." Further testimonies come from the "NHK Great East Japan Earthquake 15th Anniversary Disaster Transmission Song Project" team and Shunpei Tsuri, who was involved in arrangement and sound production. Pia's famous 100Q (100 questions, 100 answers) challenge, returning after six years, is also included. 'Shinon' is thoroughly explored from various perspectives.
Among these, the theme interview on "acoustic performance" conducted for the "Yuzu Acoustic Arena Tour 2026 Shinon" is a must-read. It delivers the current state and future of the "raw Yuzu" towards their 30th anniversary next year, accompanied by various newly shot photographs. (Contents) (Contents)
