    Kohta Yamamoto, the next-generation composer in charge of creating music for anime series like Attack on Titan The Final Season and Kingdom, has released a remix album! The album contains rearranged versions of his own anime tracks released by Pony Canyon and is now available to stream.

     

    The jacket illustration was created by Yasuto Sasada, a contemporary artist from the same generation was Yamamoto, who was born in 1987 and is active around the world. 

     

    “The background is blue, which is reminiscent of the Japanese sea and sky,” Sasada said. “His hair is red, reminiscent of the rising sun. The clothing and headphones are decorated with ukiyo-e and traditional patterns. Yamamoto’s mastery of the sounds of so many instruments needed to be represented, so I embedded piano and guitar parts into his body.”
