The EP features three songs, two of which he has posted demos for, and four remixes. "海水" (or Kai Sui) is a Japanese version of "Mora" (its title translating to "Ocean Water").

The EP was released digitally only. The official music video for "Mora" was released on February 3, 2009 and was directed by Shawn Butcher.
