"Hen-sin," produced in the fall of 2001, was recorded using a newly introduced Behringer mixer and CD-R. While the sound quality was clear, the bass seemed thin, so I corrected it with the 2025 version.
In addition, while the basic structure of the 11 songs remains unchanged, four new outtakes have been added.
I hope this gives you a clearer picture of the album as a whole. I hope you enjoy it.
The photo for the new jacket was taken in Fuchu City by Taro-chan, the archaeological excavation agent.
"Hen-sin" could have been titled "Tokyo," as each of the 11 songs evokes a cityscape.
My name is Iwashita Keisuke, also known as Sardine. Over the 20 years from 1983 to 2003, there are about 170 songs that I recorded using multitrack recording by myself. From 2024 to 2025, I have been releasing albums that compile these songs in chronological order. Then, in 2026, I plan to release several best-of albums based on the significance of the songs and listeners' preferences. Sardine's music is diverse. It ranges from accessible pop to socially conscious message songs, from progressive constructions to punk subversiveness. I'm a formidable pianist, a mad synthesizer player, a halting guitarist, a tone-reading bassist, a loose percussionist, and a clumsy singer-songwriter with solo multi-choruses. All of these parts are integrated into one persona. A mixture of romance, cold-heartedness and passion, depicting incoherent anxiety and yearning for something unattainable, this is an oldie but an evergreen. Please listen to Sardine's expressive music.
