Leo Iwamura has released his new album "MIDNIGHTINDICA", his first in about a year and a half. Well-known for his highly musical beat live performances in various places across the country, including Tokyo, Kobe, Okinawa, and Nagoya, Iwamura has long held a significant presence in Japan's music scene.
This new album, which Iwamura personally mastered, showcases his ambition and innovation. It is an attempt to express the ultimate chill-out that seamlessly integrates into everyday life, demonstrating a unique blend of his musical capabilities and artistic vision.
In an exciting collaboration, the album features guest guitarist tommgn from Oll Korrect. Together, they explore a sonic realm beyond Lo-Fi and chill, pushing the boundaries of these genres and carving out a new musical landscape.
The album artwork was created by KIMTAI, a painter with whom Iwamura is familiar. Drawing inspiration from the themes and emotions expressed in the album, KIMTAI's artwork encapsulates the unique energy and mood of "MIDNIGHTINDICA".
In essence, the album embodies a mathematically calculated spatial design, which beautifully captures its conceptual ethos. This project is not only a musical journey but also an exploration into an artistically driven and thoughtfully designed sonic space.
A musician who creates music through traditional hip-hop sampling techniques combined with multi-instrument performances, playing guitar, bass, keyboards, and more, layered through multitrack recording. In recent years, he has been actively performing as part of the three-member music unit "OVERFALL," which incorporates dub and jazz elements into their beats, achieving international live performances.
