I think it was more of Max's motivation to go back to how he was and maybe Ayu going along with that since they seem to be so close. Before this, I do not recall Max being so adamant about making new songs for Ayu.

this is me, as well. I'm so excited for what's to come!

From some of the other links, I was able to identify other people that attended this!

In the IG highlight reel you see all of the composers just making music and going around Hawaii to Guitar Center and other places, lol.

wow....you dig deep about this. Cool. Thank you for sharing

Ayu looks so beautiful on that picture!

omg so Max gathered ayu's old super team so they can produce some new stuff???

btw Ohia no Ki is very well produced. tbh it's been like ages since I really hear the quality in her stuff. omg I'm excited to hear more new songs!!!

It kind of looks like it. The people assembled all worked on her first albums in some degree along with ayu-mi-x / ayuro-mix albums.

MEGA in case it's taken down.

"ANOTHER SKY II" covered Max while they held this camp and you can hear some of the stuff that they had been making at the time too! Seems it was about an 18 day long music-making event.

Shintaro Yamaguchi / 山口 慎太郎 was also in attendance. https://www.instagram.com/shintaro0830/
