noctiluca by films

An ephemeral, but beautiful and emotional masterpiece.

The dark fantasy music project, Films, will release a digital-limited lead single from their upcoming 4th album 'at the deep end' which is also their first album in seven years. The band is formed by the instrumental band Anoice, featuring their dark cinematic sounds and two female vocalists, who sing in their own originally created languages.

This song is a dark fantasy music which features ephemeral and beautiful vocal melodies floating upon the magical sound performed predominantly on piano, harp, glockenspiel, and a string quartet formed by a violin, two violas, and a cello. We’re pretty sure that its emotional rise will resonate with you all. As with other songs of the upcoming album 'at the deep end', all tracks were composed by Yuki Murata, who is the pianist admired by many musicians such as the late Ryuichi Sakamoto and Takeshi Kobayashi. Anoice, the cinematic instrumental music group, played all of the instruments, and Takahiro Kido who takes charge of music for many movies and commercial adverts, arranged and mixed all the tracks, then mastered them.

This is an ephemeral, but beautiful masterpiece featuring a little slightly nostalgic atmosphere from Films, highly praised by Nobuo Uematsu who is achieved fame as the music composer for the Final Fantasy series.

This single 'shall we dance' will be available for free or Name Your Price on the release day.

Ricco Label is a Tokyo-based neo-classical, post-rock, electronica, and ambient music label established as an individual label of Anoice and its solo/side projects.
