<Cast Comments

Takumi Kitamura commented

When I saw the video of the film in which I voiced a part being made, I felt that the world was expanding so much. I can't wait to see the finished product.

(About 2027Sound) It was the first time for me to see such an amazing group of musicians who play such an important role in the music scene.
I think there is a lot of chemical reactions happening because so many people have come together. They are all my favorite artists.
I had the opportunity to work with Momori Matsuzaka and Minami Hamabe, and I thought the casting was as amazing as the two of them. I am quite happy to be able to listen to their music in a movie theater, a special space with large speakers.

(About OKAMOTO'S, who sings the theme song for the film) OKAMOTO'S's music has a different energy. The music produced by OKAMOTO'S has a different energy. It is a very difficult type of music, and the skills of each member are amazing. The bass player, Hama Okamoto, is my favorite Japanese bass player, and it was a great honor for me to have OKAMOTO'S play the music.

＜I was very honored to have OKAMOTO'S play for us.

OKAMOTO'S Comment

This was the first time for OKAMOTO'S to produce music for a movie. The director clearly told me that there was no other song but "Shinsekai" for the theme song! I was very happy when the director clearly said, "There is no other song but "Shinsekai." With a strange conviction that this was the only choice, I gradually wrote the music for the film as if guided by this song.
For the music, we formed a team called 2027Sound with musicians around us, and together with our trusted friends, we created a sound that we could not do or create on our own. I memorized a lot of the dialogue and even thought up songs while imitating Takumi Kitamura's voice. Above all, this was my first time working on a film production, and I fell in love with this film from the bottom of my heart.
I hope that this film, which is the beloved child and crystal of many people, will reach many people, and that the music of 2027Sound will be like a bridge between the audience and the film.

[Official Mustache Man-dism comment

I was attracted to the fact that the film is about various artists working on sound production, and I instantly fell in love with the world of "HELLO WORLD". I placed great importance on expressing the strength of the heart that loves others and the anguish that lurks behind that love with a beautiful melody.

Nulbarich comments

It was the first time for Nulbarich to be in charge of film music (theme song), so I was very happy, but at the same time I wondered how I would do it.
But it was a very important scene in the movie, and the scale of the scene was also linked to the direction we wanted to try to go, so we wanted to make sure our own style came out, and it came out naturally.
I wanted to create an image of myself as the main character, and to put my own words into the song.
I usually express myself through sounds and words based on what I feel, so it was difficult to make myself the main character.
