Rei had also actively participated in several music showcases in France and Germany and in Sonar 2005 in Barcelona, Spain where he appeared with Shiro Takatani (from performance unit, "Dumb Type", as a visual collaboration). His fourth album in 2005, ''lust'', quickly gained popularity in a variety of music scenes. In 2006, Harakami released new and past works on the compilation album ''Wasuremono'' ("Forgotten Items") and a project CD ''Colors of the Dark'' for the Planetarium. In 2007, he composed the music for the film ''Tennen Kokekko'' ("A Gentle Breeze in the Village") based on Fusako Kuramichi's novel of the same name, centered on a group of teenagers in rural Japan.
