This is the third scene in the quiet sound world that shinichi karuishi delivers in 2026.
While the previous work memories centered around acoustic guitar,
Im Here uses the clean tone of the electric guitar as its core,
quietly casting a more transparent and introspective light into the music.
Playing the electric guitar - an instrument I have faced for many years - in open tuning,
and adding delicate expression through arming and volume pedal techniques,
I drew a landscape in which I quietly whisper to myself,
Im here right now.
