Maaya will sing new song for Tamayura ~hitotose~ OP composed by Yumin!

Well, I made it to my new home safely and got the internet up and running today. Just in time for all the Maaya news on this lovely (and hot!) Friday afternoon. The news is already around here and there but I thought I’d round up some of the stuff out there.

There are several articles up in Japanese at the moment on the internet about Rasmus Faber, as he has a new EP up on the iTunes website apparently. Victor Music also have a nice website for him where you can listen to samples of his music (the news that he’s working on Maaya’s new CD has been announced there as well) here.

Read the articles on Excite Anime News, CD Journal or Oops Music.

Maaya’s live in September has also been given the title ‘Open Air Museum’. This is the concert that will be held at the Tomioka Silk Mill, a World Heritage Site. The tickets are also on sale now if you think you’ll be in the area. More details are available on Maaya’s official site.

Then there was the big news: Maaya will have a new song as the opening to the new series of Tamayura ~hitotose~ which starts in October.

The song’s title is ‘Okaerinasai’ and was composed by none other than the famous of Matsutoya Yumi!! Matsutoya, you might recall, was the original singer of ‘Yasashisa ni tsutsumaretara’, which Maaya covered for the first series of Tamayura last year.

EDIT: According to twitter, Maaya will be talking about the collaboration on Vitamin-M tonight (^^V

It seems that somehow this new song is dedicated to you because you're staying at her homeland. And this is just maybe a welcome greeting. Glad to hear about you. ;)
