Composer and vocaloid producer Hanyuu Maigo released his second album, Mashou no Kamatoto, on December 18th. The album contains 11 all-new tracks. For this album, Maigo worked with singers Nekoyashiki and Sou, in comparison to his prior album which featured vocaloids Miku and FLOWER.

Most of the tracks feature Nekoyashiki’s voice, while the last song “Sekai de ichiban ja nai anata wo aishitara” is a duet with both Nekoyashiki and Sou. The vocal mixing has been tuned to sound similar to vocaloids.

The album release trailer and several music videos, illustrated by Nanase Aoji, are available on Hanyuu’s official YouTube channel, and can be previewed below the track list.

Mashou no Kamatoto was released in 2 editions: a limited edition with a bonus DVD and a regular CD-only edition. The DVD contains 7 music videos, including those to Hanyuu’s hit songs “Aun no Beats” and “Sange Mairi” which have each been viewed over 2 million times on YouTube. Limited quantities of the first-press pre-orders come with stickers at CD Japan, and a remix of “Aun no Beats” covered by Nekoyashiki at Amazon Japan.

  • a fan says:

    Have you ever been able to find anything about the singer Nekoyashiki? It seems like she doesn’t have any sort of online presence at all–I love her voice, and I would love to hear more of it outside of Hanyuu Maigo’s album.

    • iconoclastiac says:

      I have not found any info about Nekoyashiki other than her work with Hanyuu Maigo, which leads me to suspect that she does not want to bring attention to herself as an artist. It is also possible that she goes by other pseudonyms that I’m not familiar with. I hope that she works with Hanyuu in the future, as her voice worked very well for this album.
