Track List
NTsKi is a Kyoto-based artist and musician. She began making music while living in the UK and began working in earnest in 2017 after returning to Japan. She works seamlessly to create tracks with gentle but somewhat eerie vocals and a mixture of diverse musicality. In 2021, she was selected by Bijutsu Techo as one of the newcomer artists who will open up the 2020s. Her collaboration with 7FO, released through EM Records, was selected as one of the best of the year by Shintaro Sakamoto. In addition to her self-produced works, she has participated in the works of Giant Claw, CVN, Shokuhin Matsuri a.k.a foodman, Dengaryu, KM, etc., and has released through overseas labels including TAR and Orange Milk. Also, she has contributed music to the Japan Pavilion hosted by the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry at SXSW 2019, where Yoichi Ochiai was the general director, virtual singer te'resa, and an Australian bag brand. On August 6th, 2021, her debut album "Orca" will be released via Orange Milk / EM Records.
京都を拠点に活動するアーティスト/ミュージシャン、NTsKi(エヌ・ティー・エス・ケー・アイ)が、そのキャリアの<始点>として提示するファースト・アルバム。Le MakeupとDoveとの共作「On Divination in Sleep feat. Dove」のTakaoによるリミックスは本CD盤のみの収録。NTsKiの最初期の姿が聞ける「H S K」、初ライブ時からのオープニング・チューンでありファンにはおなじみのヴォーカル多重録音曲「Orca」、自主盤7インチでリリースし注目されるきっかけとなったアーバンR&B風の「1992」、敬愛するコシ・ミハルの80sチューン「パラレリズム」のカバーなど変化に富む。本アルバムのため、illicit Tsuboiが過半のミキシングを行い、マスタリングはREM SoundのRick Essigが担当。装丁はOrange MilkのKeith Rankinが行った。米Orange Milkとエム・レコードのダブルネームでリリース。
