ウイルス禍で外出制限やイベントの中止など外部との接触がほとんど断たれたことをきっかけにスタートしたデモ音源をYouTube上にアップロードするコンテンツ『Room Songs』。デモトラックを元に直感的に書いていった歌詞や元々書き溜めていた歌詞などにメロディーを乗せ、2021年4月から2023年4月までの2年間で50曲公開。その中から10曲をピックアップ、リアレンジしたフルバージョンのアルバムが完成! シンプルでチルなトラックに多くの声を重ね、コーラスワークを活かした楽曲が多く、さらに今作品ではトラックのサウンドメイキングにも大きく関わるなど、今まで以上に自身が表現したい方向に舵を取った意欲作。また、フルバージョン制作にあたり新たに追加された歌詞は時間の経過も相まって、当時のTSUNEIの曲に"feat.TSUNEI"として参加したような作りになっている点にも注目。セカンドアルバムの『Into』から続いているアートワークデザインは、今作でもジャケットをはじめ、ブックレットのデザインや構成などをTSUNEI自身が担当! YouTubeで公開した Room Songsビデオ中のクラフトミニルームを再現したようなジャケットにも注目!
