Japanese pop artist Daoko has released her latest single, “Boku dake no Photon,” on September 24, 2025. The track is a preview of her upcoming digital EP, scheduled to drop on November 19, 2025.

Known for a mysterious presence and atmospheric, dark tone, his style blends seamlessly with Daoko’s soft, poetic delivery. Together, they’ve crafted a song that transforms fleeting cityscapes and fragments of memory into shimmering sound. It’s a cyber-dream come alive!
