I just want to note that, while I am willing to engage with most of you and follow some of you, it will most likely be through my personal account @akiko.social, as this account will strictly be posting updates as they pertain to the Lunar/Shift project, and only following members and collaborators.

I'm a trans musician (@lunarshift.bsky.social) writing lyrics about the LGBTQ+ experience, mental health struggles, and relationships. I consider my lyric style to be "uplifting emo" and my genres range between rock, post-hardcore, and metalcore depending on the song. I hope you can enjoy my music!

Just for fun, here's a mini bass cover of one of my favorite こすもぽりたん songs, YIN&YANG. I'm a out of practice if you can't tell, but please do enjoy.
It's not often I show my playing. I opted for a lot of down-strumming because it sounds awesome with my current bass setup.

First I want to share this about my song:
Although it may mislead you, Monochrome isn't a song about lovers! It's a song about mental disorder, identity, and self-acceptance.
誤解を招くかもしれませんが、モノクロームは恋人たちの歌ではありません！ これは精神障害、アイデンティティ、自己受容についての曲です。
Listen again with this in mind and you may hear it now.

Reminder: I'm still looking for vocalists to feature on my upcoming album. We're delaying it because I want to find a perfect fit for each song. Please respond to the post I've quoted if you're interested in singing on Lunar/Shift's full-length album!

I'm working on my debut album and would like to feature you on a track *if one of my songs suits you*
I have worked with a number of other amazing talents in the past, including the incredible 0P2C. If you have the pipes for a rock/post-hardcore song, show me your work!!!

"Sketch" and "Monochrome" should be reappearing on Lunar/Shift's digital streaming pages very soon ❤️🩹
Sorry, my old distributor was incredibly horrible about handling their shutdown and just about everything else they ever did...
so it should come as no surprise that we have to start over from zero.

Sketch and Monochrome will be temporarily unavailable on most or all music services. This is pending resolution now and should be fixed in a few weeks at most, hopefully sooner. The old distributor did not give me a good timeline for when my songs would be pulled, so I wasn't able to plan ahead. 😭
Finally got my remaining songs set to move to the new distributor... what a pain. Took about 45-60 minutes to get to this point.
Should work out without issue but it's a bigger effort than one might think to migrate things. The old distributor finally issued takedowns for my songs so I can't delay.

My favorite song from the new "sprite best PLUS (2011-2022)" compilation album. The chorus is so very catchy, and the song feels almost like some Garupa songs I like from Afterglow, interestingly, especially in the chorus.
Anyway, this is really a great song and a fantastic CD. Highly recommend it.
