The original album "Alone" Takanaka's eighth, was released eight months after "The Rainbow Goblins"
All tracks are written and arranged by Takanaka, starting with "Speed Of Love" which features a guitar riff reminiscent of Creation's "Spinning Toe-Hold" and is heavily topped with game-like sounds. The vocals by Choux Suzuki and Masaki Ueda add an addictive touch. The mid-tempo, urban-feeling "Feedback's Feels" (A2) showcases Takanaka's songcraft and guitar skills. The title track (A3) begins with an intro similar to Little Beaver's "Party Down" presenting a Japanese take on "Party Down" "The Night Delay" (A4) features a perfect blend of electric sounds and strings. Masahiro Takekawa of Moonriders plays violin on "Haiya~!" (B3). The album also includes "Penguin Dancer," which incorporates a vocoder and was sampled in Grimes' "Butterfly" The album consists of eight tracks, all demonstrating Takanaka's distinct style.
