[Rumor] New Summer song: CMJK, HΛL and DAI: Prepare for a invasion!

CMJK, HΛL and DAI are working on a new song for Ayu?

Star Producers CMJK, HΛL and DAI are now working together on a new song to Ayumi. It seems as if CMJK and HΛL takes care of the event, while DAI is the composer of the music. The song includes guitar, and has a mood of summer. The information stems from the blog to CMJK, but information about DAI and ChonChan (Ayu) was later deleted. Presumably for not giving fans hopes of a summer single, since it is only talk of a demo-version. 

These are names that have previously produced songs: "Boys & Girls", "Fly high", "evolution", "ourselves", "No way to say", "STEP you", "startin '," "glitter" and "Next Level "to name a few.

here's what CMJK's blog said:

起きたのではなくて
