Cupitron – Galaxy Express 999

Cupitron‘s 4th single Galaxy Express 999 (銀河鉄道999) will go on sale on May 25th.

As the title suggests, this track is a cover of the theme song of the famous manga and anime by Matsumoto Leiji.

In the MV, the members of Cupitron are ready to take a steam train journey through the stars.

Matsumoto Leiji designed the futuristic costumes worn by the girls.

According to the manga artist, the concept of the costumes is to represent “fairies of the digital world”.

The original song was released 37 years ago. The music of this new version has been arranged by the idol group’s producer Tobeta Bajune and Nakamura Yusuke.

Moreover, Matsumoto Leiji was the guest of Cupitron’s live performance which took place on April 17th at the Tokyo Hoku Topia Dome Hall. The single was introduced during this event.
