初音階段の歌い手としても活躍するシンガー・ソングライターの2作目。朴訥とした風情を纏いつつもキャッチーな旋律に、真っ直ぐで透明な歌声が乗った音世界は、聴く程に惹き込まれる不思議な魅力に溢れている。奇形児や非常階段のメンバーといったコアな面子を従えたオルタナ・ロック“あたまいたい”の浮遊感も良いが、郷愁溢れる坂田明のサックスが効いた“わたしの東京”での胸に迫る歌唱が切なくて……最高です!

Kamin Shirahata "Kudamono (meaning Fruits)"
2nd release from the singer-songwriter, also known as the vocalist for Hatsune Kaidan, a project formed by the marriage between Hatsune Miku and Japanese noise band Hijo Kaidan, formed in Kyoto in the seventies. The quiet and humble but yet catchy melody is blended perfectly with the straight crystal clear voice, forming an increasingly compelling beautiful sound scene. The pleasant lightheadedness in alternative rock tune, "Atamaitai (meaning My Head Hurts)" is delivered with the help of hard-core musicians such as members from Hijo Kaidan and Japanese punk rock band from the eighties, Kikeiji, while the wistful singing in "Watashi no Tokyo" with Akira Sakata's nostalgic saxophone tenderly grabs the listener’s heart… A sheer bliss!
