On July 29, 2024, the first official recording from "Hida Onkyo Ha" will be released. It will come out through the independent label "Hida Onkyo Ha Records." The album is titled *Blue to Green*. Rather than a polished studio production, it's a raw live recording that captures the band's true essence of complete improvisation. This release features a live performance held at painter Mikio Ban's solo exhibition, *Forms of Line and Color*, in Hida-Takayama. The music is both thrilling and chill, ambient yet noisy-a seeming contradiction that forms a unique connection, embodying connection itself. The result is an album that feels like the firing of synapses. Special guest appearances include Misaki Ishiwata, a trumpet player from the Shibusa Shirazu Orchestra, featured on tracks 3 and 4. Mastering was handled by the trusted sound engineer "kabamix," a go-to for Hida Onkyo Ha. The group plans to continue releasing live recordings as part of the Color to Color series. Additionally, Hida Onkyo Ha Records is set to announce their second and third artists in the near future. ......................................................

HIDA ONKYO HA In the mountainous region of Hida Takayama, where the voices of nature resonate, we continue to pursue expressions through improvisation, using primitive instruments, electronic instruments, and voices, while learning from the sounds of the environment. As one gal puts it, it's a sound play of the universe and monsters. As one musician puts it, it's an irreversible experiment. As one rapper puts it, it's a phenomenon. In 2024, they released their 1st album 'Blue to Green,' with mastered by kabamix. In the same year, they provided the music for the latest film 'Sugu ni Yuku.' directed by Toshiaki Toyoda.
