→Pia-no-jaC←(musician) blog) yesterday blog, Today's wonderful day. Arashi's "The scenery that I'm looking at" is released. Because dream collaboration will brought to everybody's ears. It can't be possible collaboration with that super group Arashi. It seems he has liked →Pia-no-jaC←, I feel so grateful he call us for his solo tune.

What else we talked. Trigger he got to know our music. as Ninomiya-san likes game he listen →Pia-no-jaC← through love SQ. we did fulfilled recording talking such episode. The result is this "1992*4##111" When I go to promote our new tune to shops. I met Ninomiya-san while interviewing by chance. This is fate. That time, he talked to us friendly. I was so surprised Ninomiya-san was there at Village Vanguard (general merchandise shop that sell books and CDs) So I think I will write something connected happens again.
