MIRAI is an album that quietly reflects on the self standing in the present,
caught between uncertainty and the future that has yet to take shape.
Without rushing toward answers, it embraces doubt, fragility, and hesitation
taking a single step forward while carrying them all.
These emotional moments are captured through warm, delicate sounds that flow
gently across the album.
Opening with the orchestral instrumental Prelude to the Future,
MIRAI unfolds along a single timeline shaped by the motif of
Watashi no Mirai, weaving together fragments of everyday life,
youthful emotions, and a quiet determination to move forward.
The future portrayed in this album is not a distant ideal waiting to be reached.
It is the very moment of choosing to continue, even without clarity.
MIRAI is music for everyone who is still on their way.
A singer-songwriter from Nara who sings of the sparkle and transience of youth. Based on a band sound, his sound effortlessly shifts between the warmth of acoustic music and the clarity of digital, transforming everyday scenery into a dramatic scene. His clear yet slightly husky voice evokes a sense of nostalgia, evoking listeners' own youth. His lyrics vividly depict universal, familiar scenes such as "uniform sleeves fluttering on the way to school," "blue skies after an evening shower," and "window lights swaying as the last train leaves" and resonate with people of all generations. His stage name, "Caciocavallo," has no particular meaning and was chosen simply for its pleasant sound. It is precisely because he is not bound by meaning that his music itself is given freedom and breadth. His previously released songs have spread by word of mouth, primarily in the indie scene, and he has garnered attention at live music venues and on social media as "an artist who captures the afterimages of youth." The appeal of caciocavallo is that it is music that reconnects you with "yesterday's self" and "memories of that day" every time you listen to it.
