about

The covid-19 crisis broke out while I was planning a new work, and I got the motif by asking the question of what is the driving force for mankind to overcome this crisis caused by the pandemic. In light of the history of mankind, I conceived songs that reflects the influence of the cycle of good will on us today and the phases of the times.

With the cognitive revolution, people became more broadly aware of causality, and many like-minded people were able to work together to achieve a goal. People are expanding the scope of our understanding by exploring uncharted territory and discovering many things that are beneficial to us. In order for the old and new to harmonize, it takes a period of time to tune it up, and that can cause confusion. This series of flows has been repeated to create the Anthropocene, and I thought it could be called a “Common Heritage of Humankind,” so I took that as the title of album.

In this album, I want to convey a message of hope to our current situation, which is overcoming another crisis, along with gratitude for receiving the benefits of history. In addition to arousing new emotions in people, I want to deliver music that adds strength to get through difficult times.
