HARUNA will participate in FM802 2015 ACCESS's campaign song! Since spring is considered to be a season where many people start new lives (school, work, etc.), FM802 holds their ACCESS campaign annually to support those people who do so.

The special unit, named「Sugar & The Radio Fire」, will consist of several other musicians such as Suga Shikao and Tatsuya Mitsumura from NICO Touches the Walls. The name of the song will be 「Music Train ～Haru no Majutsushi～ 」 (Music Train ～春の魔術師～; Music Train ～Spring Magician～), with lyrics・music・composition by Suga Shikao, and will start to be played on-air from 3/21.

Looking forward to this!.clap. I really like it when they collaborate with other artists~
I hope someone records it so I could hear it!

Oh wow, that is a great honour for Haruna !

I am also looking forward to this.  Suga Shikao is an amazing musician, so it's exciting to see how Haruna's vocals will add to the song.  Suga-san tweeted that Haruna had some difficult parts, and she said that she never used her voice like that before....Well, he said that she handled it perfectly, so that some high praise...!
With 3 guest artists already lined up, this special project is looking good!

It's good seeing the members branching out and participating in projects other than as a band....

Here's the song ^^

Well, since there are lots of singers I didn't hear much of Haruna on solo. I think I heard more of her after 2:00 or so (that is if I distinguished her voice right xD) She's more on Harmony here, I guess.

I listened to the song and Haruna sings quite a lot. She sounds different though, kind of like a guy.  0:28, 1:20, the harmony starting from 2:24, and 3:15.

Is it cause of the audio quality? I honestly wouldnt have thought thats haru... she just sounds different well not recognisable

I'm 99% sure that's not HARUNA (0:28)
I think it's the main vocalist of KANA-BOON

0:28 - definitely does not sound like her to me. It's definitely another guy's.
1:20 - I could hear her more after 1:30 or some time like that, along with the other girl and other guys. but she's singing harmony. not in a much high pitch as the girl's.
2:24 - Haruna's definitely part here.
3:15 - Mi-ra-ku-ru(?) part sounds like Haru but then it kinda starts to sound like another guy's voice (like the guy on 0:28)

Well, I couldn't really tell if my ears are telling me the truth or not.
I also listened to this in our school PC with their headphones and quality's different :p
If we could get a higher quality for this, a lyric book where it shows who sings where- that could be really helpful lol.

(I wonder what kind of difficulty did Haruna encounter here? Matching voice pitches with the boys and harmonise? I'm really curious. cos it's definitely different harmonising with Tomomi and Mami.)

I'm not quite sure myself. When I listened to that part it does sound like Haruna at first but as it approaches to the end, it kind of changes to someone else but who knows. It's not like Mami sounded the same when she sang in Super Beaver's Q&A.
Also, just like what Michio87 said that Haruna used her voice in a different way and in relation to that, the harmony parts doesn't sound different to anything she did before.

Cool!

Is that a new station jingle for Access FM?

A little late but heres the music video. Makes it a lot easier to make out who is singing now
