This is Osaka's Tujiko Noriko's third-full length release for Editions Mego. While still maintaining her trademark version of experimental Japanese pop, on Solo the edges have been polished with some of Noriko's most accomplished works. In part due to the mixing skills of Gerhard Potuznik and Tyme (from Mas). One could even say a work of great maturity. Noriko herself best describes the record this way: 'Making music was like I drive and drive looking for a place where there is nobody. I would arrive there, wow cool, I get out of the car quickly. Then I happily dance, sing, doing a mini-party alone. Doing a solo show alone in a big green field. There is a lake, the sun, a train, an airplane, the city, a forest, camera, second sight & everything in the field, etc. Anyway, it's nice when it's working well. I had forgotten this way of enjoying for a while. Last year, after some collaboration albums, I remembered I wanted to have this feeling again.'
