Today I had a recording of TOKYO BRASS STYLE with the drummer MiMi,and the keyboardist Ayu-Kang!
You know ,Actually this is my first time to play the bass guitar on recordings for TOKYO BRASS STYLE !
I joined this band last September but we didn’t have opportunity and it wasn’t the timing .
I’m so happy that finally I can play on TBS’s CD. Makes me feel like finally I’m The Member of TOKYO BRASS STYLE ! lol (In fact , many people asked me whether I’m TBS’s temporary backup musician or not . And some people kinda got surprised when I said I’m the member of the bad.)
BTW We have our own show on the December 22nd in Tokyo .
I’m excited with it !
See ya!!

Today I had a solo show of Ayu Kang Trio at Yotsuya Moebius.
We all are the member of TOKYO BRASS STYLE . So this project is called ” Brass Style side project ” but I’m pretty sure Ayu Kang is a great pianist / keyboardist and the style is totally different with TOKYO BRASS STYLE. Even you don’t know TBS you will be able to enjoy this performance .
Today we have a guest sax player Misaki Yamoto !
She is so cool and gave us some new essence ; ) !
We played Kan-chan’s original songs and also cover songs.
At the encore , Kan-chan played by herself (I and Mimi were just listening to it ). The song named ALONE had a dramatic melody and I really loved it !!
I’m so happy to be involved in her trio band . Thanks .
see ya!!!

Today I had a recording for my solo album which will be released in September .
The album concept is funk music . All 5 songs are funk music with different way.
I decided to make the album (actually its only 5 songs, so I should better to say “ EP “) because I wanted to show everything that I’ve learned / felt ever through my life .I put a lot of my roots on it .
And I want to takethem to the world .I hope it’ll be my new start line to the next step.That’s why I wrote all songs in English (even though my pronunciation is suck .lol )
Anyway , the recording went really well because of the awesome engineer and member !
I really appreciate to them. I can’t thank enough .
After this , we’ll record tap dance , horn, vocal, backing vocal etc…
