Kayo Kusano, starting a Touhou circle.

In addition to composing the mega-hit song "Gurenge," Kayoko Kusano, who is active as a singer-songwriter providing numerous anime songs and music to various artists, has created a Touhou arrangement song themed around her most beloved Touhou character, "Shameimaru Aya."

The Eastern arrangement album created in collaboration with allies and senior members of the Eastern circle, including Kishida Kyoudan & THE Akeboshi Rockets, Akira Horie, Igarashi (Hitorie), and Tsubasa Ito, who also work together in the major scene, has been grandly completed!!

'Kyouko Shinjou' themed, a newly drawn song 'Wind of Faith' and 'As the Wind Blows' captured from two perspectives: public and personal.
And it includes a total of 5 songs, including the cover versions by Kayoko Kusano of "Night Flight Believer", "The Flower Bloomed in Fantasy", and "LOSTPHANTASIA" featured in "Touhou Danmaku Kagura".
The booklet also includes the complete liner notes for all songs by Kayoko Kusano.
Please try to perceive the 'wind' and 'belief' depicted in the lyrics throughout the entire song with your five senses.

"This is the first piece for me, and I would be happy if it could be a positive 'something' for you, even just a little. Believing that, I will continue to create music from now on." -- Kayoko Kusano
