[Clerk M No. 9] Goodbye, Afterglow/Suzudango
Apparently, he recently dug up some records from his parents' house. Hello, I'm M, a store employee.
This time, we will introduce Suzudangosama's new work, which was distributed at Kyoto Hiho in 2022.
Suzudango is a crazy member of the circle who creates veryunconventional distribution hey. This time, we commissioned Suzudango to create 's new work ``Goodbye, Afterglow''.

＿＿＿In addition to the dialogue between Renko and Mary, please enjoy the music they play along with the story on the sono sheet.
This work includes a fist-edited novel with a hand-cranked player, allowing you to enjoy both the music and the novel.
This time, I would like to talk about my passion for this product from a consumer's perspective.
Being analog
The music industry has been going digital for a while now, and with subscriptions, you can listen to as much music as you want using your smartphone.Even in the doujin industry, there are circles that only distribute download cards, and that don't even participate in sales events and only sell downloads. I've been seeing it quite a bit lately. Personally, I feel lonely.
The moment you peel off the shrink wrap on a CD with a bad jacket and put it in your PC's drive
The moment you drop the needle on the record, wondering what kind of music it will be
The moment you type in the website from the download card and press enter
I think it is precisely through such analog work that you can enjoy the tension of the work and the entrance to the world of the work.
I feel that this work is a supreme work that allows you to relive the secret club and experience the feeling of being immersed in the scientific century by creating a hand-cranked player and playing it with your own hands.
You can listen to the audio from the OR code.
Playing with your own hands
As you can see from this jacket illustration, Renko's otamatone and Mary's keyboard, which have a bit of a Konjuden feel to them, are distinctive. Music in the scientific century is said to be automatically generated and played by AI according to the person's taste.Even in this day and age, software that allows AI to create melodies can also be played automatically. There are even musical instruments available.
Also, in this work, she has like/dislike, good/bad, and Interesting/InterestingIt talks about the fact that there are indicators that it is not interesting.
Hifu Club's music, which has a human touch that cannot be said to be accurate, is played by one's own hands. : #a3ce1a;">I believe that's where I feel the fun of music as she says.

That concludes my introduction to Goodbye Afterglow.
Samples are on display at the main store, so please take a look.
P.S. This is quite long, but is there anyone out there who can hear it accurately by hand?
