(P)+(C) 2021 THANKS GIVING

Marina Kodama , a singer-songwriter/producer and member of the electronic music unit Sawa Angstrom, has released a new single, "Uka (emergence)", nearly four years after her first album "Tsumetai Kemuri" in 2017.

As the title suggests, the song is about breaking free from entangled values and spinning life forward. With her haunting voice and a grand piano woven into a self-made beat that emphasizes the space between notes, it feels like the opening of the second chapter of her career. Fans of her work with Sawa Angstrom will appreciate this reminder of her talent as a singer-songwriter.

The contrabass is played by Keitaro Kanamine, known for his work with major artists like BEGIN, Rimi Natsukawa, and Kazufumi Miyazawa. Sound production, including mixing and mastering, was handled by Satoshi Yoshioka of Sawa Angstrom. Her long-awaited second album is scheduled for release next year.
