Kouryo

"Kouryo" is a song themed around loneliness and salvation.
At times, we grow weary of acting, shouting fruitless logic, cutting meaning with words like knives, and forcing fragments upon each other. What remains is an unfulfilled heart-a shadow of emptiness.

Yet even within ordinary days, there can be moments of quiet salvation. For some, it may be the faint light streaming through a dawn window; for others, the freedom of drawing a rainbow of their own.

The sound draws on a 70s AOR-inspired style, where piano, electric piano, cutting electric guitar, strings, and a groovy bassline intertwine. Jazzy m9th chords shape the verses, while a bold major key shift in the chorus creates a soundscape where melancholy and hope coexist-unmistakably mouscream.

I hope that Kouryo gently stays by your side, offering a quiet light of solace amid the wistful days of solitude.
