MONSTERA is an ornamental plant native to tropical America. It is derived from the Latin word monstarum = monster. The leaf design is quite unusual. It certainly looks like a monster.
I used calypso rhythms for this piece. It is said that the roots and rhythm of the music come from the fact that African slaves who were brought to Japan long ago could not communicate with each other in their own language, and they communicated with each other through music. In that sense, calypso rhythms have a monster power similar to that of words by themselves. Moreover, it is an incredibly bright rhythm. In Hawaii, MONSTERA is said to be cherished as a plant that leads the light of hope, and I tried to create a dance song that is bright but also has a little bit of shade.
A music unit from Tokyo University of Agriculture, Chuo University, and Kokushikan University, with Toru Ogawa (deceased) on G and Hiroto Inoue on Ds, at its core. Daichi Katsumata B / Hajime Kawahara B / Tsuyoshi Togawa B Kazutaka Kano Key / Vo When the university was formed, he was active in an "anonymous band". He mainly plays FUSION, focusing on the guitar sound of the Gibson 335. Because of the fact that I was mainly studying and the problem of the distance of members to school Formed "SHIFT" as a unit band organized for each song according to the time of each member. Freeze the unit upon graduation. Even though each of them has time to try to resume their activities Due to the overseas migration of members and Toru Ogawa G being ill, he passed away. I couldn't play together again. In 2022, inheriting the deceased's wish to "someday have an opportunity to play together" Resumed activities as "SHIFT" in music production using IT network and PC technology.
