система | system is happy to present a live release of the "Requiem Live @ Hisomine March-11" by the Japanese Tokyo-based artist Oriental Love aka Kaya Takada.
A bit less than two years ago we already released Kaya's album Nirvana which is a great 7-tracks journey through the electronics full of sonic emotions and cool rhythms. From the start, Kaya was very interested in Ukraine and its culture, so today he's fully supporting Ukraine in our battle against russia. So here is the text, a letter from the artist to the future listeners around the globe: 

- "My name is Kaya Takada, I'm Japanese.
I have been active in music under the name of  ' Oriental Love ' in Tokyo.
I used to release my album from the Ukrainian label, система | system, and I should have been releasing the next album at the beginning of this year.
I have been so proud of releasing my music from Ukraine.
Because I haven't been to Ukraine yet, but Ukraine captures my heart from before.
This feeling is a sensation, so I can't explain it well.
Perhaps I might be born in Hokkaido which there is a north island in Japan.
( My most of inspiration is the nature of Hokkaido )

When this war began, I was severely shocked.
At first, I was worried about the safety of my friend who I exchanged emails just the other day.
Fortunately, he has been fine, but as long as this war will finish, these worries will not be gone.
Next, I felt like dizzy strongly.
That was a strange feeling as if I felt that war began in my soul.

It had been decided that I did a gig on March-11th-2022
I thought I'd like to extend my heartful condolence to those who died in this war.

And the other day, I watched one movie, "Ціна правди".
There is one scene in which some boys and girls sing a very horrible song in this movie.
I took a sample of its part, I used it for this live performance.

I hope Ukrainian people will find peace of mind from the bottom of my heart." - Oriental Love aka Kaya Takada
