"Unarguably a masterpiece of organic bedroom folk sounds"
As the second release from flau, and also the second album by Part Timer, this luminous album is a collection of brand new tunes, a couple of remixes and some bits from the voluminous archives at McCaffrey HQ. "Blue" is where organic sounds and tranquil atmosphere drift together, gently blowing folkish breezes in between the summer leaves.

"Open up your ears to the new era of japanese contemporary pop music"
Mirror Flake 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 (perfectly executed by ueda takayasu), and the gorgeous whispery voice of cokiyu.
