D-Style Theme (in Tsuruta Farm)

"D-Style no Theme (in Tsuruta Farm)" is the 22nd single from the ambitious 30-consecutive-single release project by Tooru Kobayashi, a singer-songwriter who travels across Japan in a self-built camper truck.

The title "D-Style" originates from a beloved bar that once existed in Toyama. Although the bar has closed, it remains a special place that created countles bonds and meaningful connections. This song was written as a tribute to that nostalgic space and its welcoming atmosphere.

"How about a cold beer for now?" "Leave today's troubles right here."
With warm lyrics that gently embrace anyone carrying the fatigue and struggles of daily life, this track offers comfort and encouragement. Set to an upbeat and rhythmically comforting acoustic guitar performance, it serves as an uplifting anthem that validates every difficult night.

The recording took place inside a vinyl greenhouse at Tsuruta Farm in Yamanashi, surrounded by Shine Muscat grapevines, where Tooru was helping out with farm work. Captured live on location through field recording, the open atmosphere and natural room acoustics enhance the organic warmth of the music.

Experience this heartfelt acoustic track, born from Tooru Kobayashi's genuine connections and journey across Japan.
