A surrealist recording of an urban neighborhood street in North Texas. Title: ノイズの中の私の世界 Description: ノイズの中の私の世界 をリリースしました。 この作品は、日常の中に常に存在している低い音、遠くの振動、重なり合う響きに耳を澄ますところから生まれました。 私たちは普段、それらを「ノイズ」として無意識に切り捨てていますが、その中で世界は形を保ち、私たちは呼吸し、生きています。 本作は、環境音と持続する音を中心に構成されたアンビエント／環境音楽作品です。 音楽として前に出るというより、空間としてそこに在り続けることを意図しています。…

In a world where cynicism, hatred, and division threaten to eclipse empathy, Rejoice stands as a manifesto of defiant hope—a call to build a fairer, more enlightened society. At its core, Rejoice asserts that true freedom is found in unity, where joy and compassion replace rage, and fear gives way to a shared purpose.

As democracy falters under the weight of calculated division, Rejoice serves as a rallying cry against the forces that seek to keep us apart. It reminds us that our power lies in solidarity—that only by coming together, guided by love and understanding, can we break the chains of inequality and step into our full human potential.

This is more than music. This is resistance, celebration, and a vision of the world yet to come.

If this message speaks to you, share it, amplify it, and stand with us. Let’s move as one, an unstoppable wave of compassion and resolve—proclaiming that only through love can we truly transform society.

Heavy Sigh. Here's a loop of the 35 second cover, in both the square and vertical version required by Apple.

For Anna (previously titled Murder She Called It) is an immersive sound sculpture, born from a deeply personal journey through therapy. Inspired by a breakthrough session with my therapist, Anna, this piece explores what it means to confront oneself in the void, where guilt and forgiveness battle in silence. This soundscape captures the raw tension of self-reconciliation. Ethereal vocals,…
