Twenty-four preludes for twenty-four hours
Joan counted time by divine powers
Well-tempered system for a burning heart
Bach knew how to tear the world apart
Every key signature told her fate
C major simple, F sharp intricate
She tuned her soul to perfect pitch
Knew exactly when to make the switch
Fugue subject stated, answer follows
Truth that no corruption swallows
Countersubject weaving through the lies
Inversion showing where the real hope lies
Stretto building to the final stand
Augmentation by God's own hand
Diminution when the flames grew high
Coda written in the sky
Well-tempered tuning for a holy war
Every interval worth fighting for
Bach wrote the manual for her faith
Joan became the living wraith
From shadows I observe the pattern
How the sacred voices they do fatten
Every scale degree has meaning
Every modulation leaning
Toward the truth that never changes
Through all music's wide ranges
Well-tempered tuning for a holy war
Every interval worth fighting for
Bach wrote the manual for her faith
Joan became the living wraith
Prelude and fugue forever playing
Some truths are worth the cost of praying

KIRI
Orchestra of Steel presents a groundbreaking fusion of traditional Japanese instruments, classical masterpieces, and hip-hop rhythms. This 10-track album reimagines iconic works from Bach to Beethoven through the lens of Japanese orchestral hip-hop, with koto melodies weaving through symphonic beats. The journey begins with the tale of Joan of Arc and traverses musical landscapes from Beethoven's Ninth Symphony to Bach's sacred masses, each transformed with Eastern sensibility and modern production. The koto's distinctive voice leads listeners through triumphant anthems, dark requiems, baroque intricacies, and mystical prophecies, all anchored by compelling hip-hop rhythms ranging from 95 to 112 BPM. This ambitious project bridges centuries and cultures, creating a unique sonic experience where classical grandeur meets contemporary urban energy, filtered through the refined aesthetics of Japanese musical tradition.
