Composing[Earth Festival]
The music produced this time around is a sequel to "Spirit of Asia". The first five tracks were born like dew from the four seasons of this land, and the latter four tracks are based on Okhotsk's ancient maritime tribe, the Moyoro. The Okhotsk Sea area is known for its many seafaring peoples since the Jomon period. Each group had its own culture and stories.
The Moyoro people, especially known as the ancient maritime people of Okhotsk, are also known for transmitting culture to who are now the Ainu people, from the Jomon period to the Yayoi period. But the Moyoro people disappeared abruptly from history, and are therefore considered a mysterious ancient maritime tribe. Humans of all ages have had their ups and downs.
Human beings repeat the rise and fall on Earth, a planet in the vast universe. I wanted to know what that means,
which lead to this composition.
