In his studio recordings, he is known as an electronic musician and composer, composing, performing, recording, and mixing all by himself, but his live performances, which have garnered great acclaim, are also physical performances. His musicians include detune's Shuta Ishizuka, Yoshio Otani, Tomohiko Gondo, known for supporting YMO, Ken Ito, Misato Kinoshita, and Jimanica. The artwork was by contemporary artist Teppei Kaneuji, and mastering was handled by Itsuki Mashiko of ROVO. This is a valuable musical work that can be considered the culmination of Shuta Hasunuma's current work. It comes with self-written liner notes for all 40 tracks, allowing you to carefully read them while listening to the four and a half hours of music.
