"Kara Kise - From Crow to Miracle -" is a song shaped from the February 2024 chapter of The Dictionary Journey,
a path that traces the transformation from karasu (crow) to kiseki (miracle).
The stillness before dawn,
the lingering warmth of ink,
the flame borne by Garuda across the sky,
and the devotion within Yan Zhenqing's single stroke-
these moments allow the world of calligraphy and the pages of the dictionary to overlap,
revealing the light that rises from within a single black line.
A miracle is not merely prayer;
it lives in the hand that carves the "now."
Black is not darkness-it is the color of beginnings.
This conviction is carried quietly through the music.
Born from the daily act of reading the dictionary,
copying its words,
and raising each character through calligraphy,
the song stands as a new piece of "dictionary poetry"
unique to Kneeking Records.
May you feel the quiet heat beneath the silence,
and the power held in one simple stroke
to change the world.
Kneeking Records is an independent music label devoted to capturing the soul of the Dictionary Journey through sound. Founded by Yoshihiro Sato a calligrapher, language pilgrim, and former world kickboxing champion the label weaves together words, rhythm, and voice to create a truly distinctive musical world. Since 2013, Sato has been reading Japanese dictionaries one page at a time, drawing inspiration from each definition to craft poetry, music, and calligraphy. This ongoing project, known as Jisho no Tabi (Dictionary Journey), continues to evolve with every passing day.
