While I was decluttering (i.e., preparing for the end of my life), I found a Yamaha QY100 sequencer. I gingerly turned it on to see if it would work, and (for the first time in about 10 years) it still worked perfectly. To my surprise, the data I'd been working on back then was still there, so I played it back and it played a lovely, disco-esque orchestral track!
Looking back,
40 years ago, in 1985,
I was 21 years old and would go to discos every night after work, accompanied by my coworkers. (^^;)
40 years have passed since then, and I'm quite old now, but
I still love the music that was playing back then, and this piece is my own redefinition of disco music for 2025.
A 61-year-old man named "Zihuatanejo" expresses through instrumental music what he feels every day of the year as seen through the eyes of a city dweller living in Tokyo, Japan. Inspired by the real atmosphere of central Tokyo, where the seasons are not so distinct throughout the year, "Zihuatanejo" expresses the atmosphere of living in Tokyo, such as the atmosphere of the city, the sense of congestion and the flow of people, from his perspective, as if he were writing a diary of music. m(_ _)m
