In May, Aimer had revealed that she would be collaborating with three J-Rock artists: Taka (ONE OK ROCK), TK (Ling Tosite Sugire), and Yojiro Noda (RADWIMPS). The first two will be collaborating with her on her 10th single insane dream / us. "insane dream" was reportedly recorded in LA with Taka overseeing the production and lending his voice to the chorus of the track. He also provided the musc and was a primary producer for the sone. "us", on the other hand, was recorded in Berlin and reportedly features BOBO on the drums. BOBO worked with TK previously before on singles like unravel. The double-A side will be dropped on July 8th!
The collaboration with Yojiro Noda of RADWIMPS will take place during the release of her 11th single which is to be announced. Check out what her peers have to say about her voice!
I was impressed by her voice the first time I heard it. Since that day and up until this music offer came around, we have worked together in the studio and discussed and created through trial and error. During the recording, I was consistently blown away by her talent as a singer. I think this music presented a new challenge for Aimer. The session was inspired by my simple desire for this amazing artist to be able to reach more people around the world. It was a great time and also good motivation for me to improve my own skills! – Taka (ONE OK ROCK)
Aimer has this wonderful magic to draw in words and create melodies from her voice. Before I knew it, I had arrived to a place I had never seen before. It was as if I knew of the destination and and gradually drew a map from her voice. Thank you for opening the door to sounds I couldn’t express from within me. I hope your magic will move many others. – TK (Ling Tosite Sigure)
I think I first heard her voice maybe 3, 4 years ago. It just so happened that I got her CD from an acquaintance. From only her voice, I thought to myself, “Hey, I kind of like this person”. I’m glad I got to hear her voice over and over again during the recording. It made me happy that it was Aimer who sang this special song. Thank you, Aimer. – Yojiro Noda (RADWIMPS)
