Biography
All three members are from the band Rumania Montevideo. In this side project they get a chance to express themselves differently then in their other band. Facing new challenges musically, they try to fulfill their love for music in ways that should impress not only Rumania Montevideo fans, but a variety of different listening audiences.[1] Kazonobu songs show us a surprising melody deployment, Satomi text tries to emphasize with the sound of the words as if they were cut from daily life, and there is Akiko's voice which is giving us floating feeling of a given life (to everyone), inviting us to a soft psychedelic world.[2] They were active till autumn 2003, nowadays they are on hiatus and their website was removed as well. Despite theirs short career, they've released 2 studio albums and 6 singles.[3]
