Open up your ears to the new era of Japanese contemporary pop music. We are proud
to announce flau's first cd release Mirror Flake, is the beautiful debut album by the
talented female artist cokiyu who hails from Ehime, Japan. As a vocalist,
she participated in albums and live performances of aus. Mirror Flake sets a new
standard in the genre of bedroom pop. The album instills soft-hearted shoegaze sounds
into delicately beautiful melodies which are organically mixed with the graceful use of instruments
like toy piano, music box, guitar (by ueda takayasu), and the gorgeous whispery voice
of cokiyu that has sparkled in Curveland of aus. Mirror Flake is definitely a must have
for the fans of Japanese pops.(RIYL: Piana, Midaircondo, Mum, Caroline)
