Tr 01 Vesper
Vesper is the evening star, announcing the biggening of shadowy world.
This music was represented the sweet darkness of night at the shrine near my birthplace.
Around the shrine, there are a few old giant trees looks like the abode of spirits.
Even though this place is very close to downtawn, I can hear the hoot of an owl and smell old but good scents in there.
Tr 02 Samoa Blue
Do you know the color of samoa blue?
I didn't know the name, but its the color of my car, which is pale-pink-fleshed blue like the approach of evening.
"I'll walk with you to the end of the world"
I'm not sure if it's a simple message or impossible dream.
Tr 03 Spaceman
It's the image of astronauts, but they flies in imaginary space.
In summer, I enjoy gazing at the sky of before dawn. I feel like I'm in space and so happy and free.
I hope you to enjoy journey in space.
Tr 04 Phosphor
This song is the next chapter of 'Spaceman' and pendant work to 'vesper'. It's the morning star.
The beautiful day begins.
Tr 05 Jump
You walk in the mountains and all is freshly green.
You expend your energy, at the same time, you take the energy from the nature.
What a wonderful energy circulation!
Tr 06 Our Night
Love is a game. It's the story of night.
I think I could represent profound awareness without using a big variety of tones.
Tr 07 Voluptuous Temple
As kids, I didn't realize temples had such a glamorous air.
I spent my life until the ages of 20 in Kanazawa, there were a few distinct temples over there.
Once I set foot in there, I picked up its bizarre atmosphere.
Temples are the place to sublime worldly desires. There must be a lot of worldly desires drifting in there.
This is a song for secret charm of temples.
Tr 08 Tripping
In May, everything was accepted.
Don't you feel like that?
Tr 09 Flying Tea Cup
By beautiful moonlight, I'd like to ride on the Cups and Saucers with a loved one and fly up in the air..
It's been my silly dream since I was a child, that still makes me so happy.
Tr 10 Our Bliss
This is a music for sky and my main theme.
We sing a song as if our life depends on it. At the same time, we know we can't tell everything to everybody.
But don't worry, your message is received.
If you look upward, you can see the big sky, and everyone sees the same sky.
Tr 11 Ripple
It's the ideal way to end this album with piano.
Can you see the shining peaceful river?
