Comment from Da-iCE
“12 years have passed since we formed Da-iCE. As we have taken on a variety of challenges, we have reached an ever-larger audience, who have come to expect more and more from our music. This album shows the ‘next phase’ of Da-iCE, as we have evolved beyond the boundaries of genre and vocation to become creative artists active within various areas of the music scene. We have a great deal of confidence in our new album ‘SCENE’, so we hope you’ll listen to it.”

The album’s 12 songs include "Star Mine", which won an Excellent Work Award at the prestigious annual Japan Record Awards; "Funky Jumping", the theme song for Capcom’s forthcoming game Exoprimal; and lead track "Dandelion", which recently set TikTok and YouTube ablaze. The music and lyrics to "Dandelion" were composed by Da-iCE member Sota Hanamura. Featured as the theme song to TV Asahi’s weekly Thursday drama series Keiji to Kenji, Tokidoki Hanji, the song’s lyrics express Da-iCE’s determination to “face reality, no matter what the situation, and let the flowers bloom as we keep walking towards our goal”.

They were described as having “singing voices that exceed human limitations!”
