[From Yoshimasa Inoue]
・Regarding the release of the 40th anniversary albums (trilogy)
During these 40 years, I have always been expected to deliver the “next”
Therefore, I have continued to upgrade my equipment and sound versions.
However, the mission of composition is to shape the human heart.
Looking back, only my own heart has not been updated and remains as human as ever.
I am grateful that I have been able to write songs as my true self for 40 years,
and also to the staff, friends, family, and fans who have allowed me to do so.
This time, I am not only looking forward to the “next” but also enjoying reunions with past works created with everyone.
I hope this can be a turning point for me to step forward again in my musical life.
- About the collaboration album -
Reuniting with past works and with artists who made me a composer was incredibly joyful and precious.
Since the day we created the works together, I wonder what has changed for both of us.
Our way of working? Our values?
When recording begins, nostalgic voices echo in the studio.
Although many songs have significantly changed from the original sound, when the familiar melody starts flowing, my heart is instantly transported back to that day.
Everyone who participated responded with a “Yes” to the collaboration offer without hesitation.
Duets with artists who performed with the same passion as back then illuminate Yoshimasa Inoue’s 40-year musical history from various angles!
〈Would you like to look back on 40 years together in about an hour? (^ ^)〉
