"...people like my family members, lovers, friends, staff, acquaintance relationships, and the people I have around me greatly influence my work, and I wanted to make one album about that. My keyword was "roots". And, after that I had "unity". ...I wanted to do this theme one time. We did a gospel sound in order to represent these people the closest." (Takuro)
