out there on the road and the road is you - #2208 by chair house 12312019


======== my creation note today ========
When I try to write something about creating a song, the words don't come out a bit. Well I don't know anything. . I only need the right brain, but if I have recently started thinking a bit about my creations, I can still understand that it is born out of a Japanese style. In that case, you have to listen to the voices of ancient Japanese people. And I want to spread it to people all over the world with music. So I first introduced "Wabi" and "Sabi" in English (→ soundcloud). It feels like a way of doing what I do every day. . Sennorikyu tea ceremony road, Matsuo Basho haiku road. . Simple medium beauty, simple medium spiritual richness, elements of old age, loneliness, quietness, and stillness. . There is no concept of kindness for some reason, but I want to pursue something that adds kindness to it .. It will surely become something of modern Japanese. .

if your evolutionary branch is a dead end - #2207 by chair house 12302019


Yugen is also an important concept in traditional Japanese aesthetics. The exact translation of the word depends on the context. 
In the Chinese philosophical texts the term was taken from, yūgen meant "dim", "deep" or "mysterious". In the criticism of Japanese waka poetry, it was used to describe the subtle profundity of things that are only vaguely suggested by the poems, and was also the name of a style of poetry (one of the ten orthodox styles delineated by Fujiwara no Teika in his treatises).

that's what you feel - #2206 by chair house 12292019


======== my creation note today ========
Sabi is also represents an important Japanese aesthetic value. The word implies the combined elements of old age, loneliness, resignation and tranquility. More concretely, Sabi means the elegance that flows naturally from a simple, refined essence. For example, no matter how much an old man, dressed in armor, might fight bravely, one would still be able to recognize his figure as that of an old man. The concept of sabi was fostered by Matsuo Basho(1644-94), the leading Haiku master and his followers. (from "A Guidebook to Jaspan and its Customs" of Nihonbungeisha by MUKAI,Kyouko)
In this project, I also want to have this sense. And establishing this is my main target.. : )

in a way that I'm not certain I can explain - #2205 by chair house 12282019


======== my creation note today ========
Wabi is the Japanese aesthetic of trying to find beauty in simplicity, and spiritual richness in frugality. For instance, the most famous tea master, Sen-no-Rikyu(1522-91) valued decorating his the hut with a single wild flower. In other words, wabi is a philosophy based on enjoying separation and release from the materialistic world and attaining a peaceful state of mind. (from "A Guidebook to Jaspan and its Customs" of Nihonbungeisha by MUKAI,Kyouko)
In my primal music project, I want to establish the same way in the music culture.

and created something else - #2204 by chair house 12272019


======== my creation note today ========

I wrote earlier that I like improvisation. The reason is probably that any boring sequence of sounds comes in a state of unnatural natural heart in the subtlety of its timing, so that something good and magical enters. . The painter chooses his own color in the world of white paper, chooses a brush, and paints as he likes. Speaking of music, a picture writer is a composer and creates a music space by choosing his favorite sound in an empty space. Are musicians, in terms of pictures, people who print and copy or copy? A person who conveys the original goodness of a picture to many people. I do not know the difference between the original picture and the picture taken in the picture book. It may be different by about 10%, but more than 90% tells whether the painter's first painting is a photograph or an original. The amount of information on music is so small that it can be transmitted to the world as soon as it is born. My music is 2 minutes with the highest quality stereo sound, but it takes 27 megabytes for everything. Differences in musical instruments, different performers, different places of performance, whatever. After all, musicians in at least a new era are those who do their own thing (or maybe even mastering). During this time, I was interviewing Yasutaka Nakata on TV, and he did exactly that. He says that he uses his own equipment and software, but focuses on the quality of the output. . It was said that creating a song would take a moment, but it would take time to make the song audible. In my case, playing a song is 2 minutes. 10 minutes to create a WAV file by performing mastering equivalent. It takes a lot of time to think about the song name (about 10 minutes recently because there are stories), uploading to soundloucd is 10 minutes. Since then blogs have been long, but if this is not music, ignore it. Well, it's like 30 minutes to make one song. expense? Well zero. . Even if you think about PC, sound software, network connection and soundcloud registration fee, it is about 100 yen if divided by 1000 songs. I can't imagine 20 years ago. First, you can't record piano with this quality. To do this, please ask a technician who is good at piano recording in a proper recording studio. Even if you're ready, even if the pianist (I'm myself) who is weak to the pressure gets bored and improvises under tension, it will not be useable at first, but it will be useless first time. Several times, the atmosphere becomes usable, but the goodness of the original material is completely disappearing, and to overcome this, it is necessary to hold down the studio, engineer and director for a few days to make a 15-track album Must. Well one million yen. That is to say that technology advance has reduced the cost of creating music for me to one thousandth. With this price, inflation is unlikely. . Full of deflation. This story is interrupted here because there is no end. I do not read separately. It's boring. . sorry. .

at least I don't want to own you - #2203 by chair house 12262019


======== my creation note today ========

I wrote it many times, but I think it's special, so I'll write it again. Improvisation means that the physiological activity of life is directly recorded for that time. That you can immediately enjoy the acquired material. The emotional state of the performer, the feelings of pleasure, the feelings of falling in love, the feelings of anxiety, etc., appear directly in each and every sound, without any doubt. I think this is both attractive and disadvantageous. Thankfully, I have been able to face my heart positively in the creation of all songs so far. It is really thankful. Thanks for something wonderful somewhere. On the other hand, non-improvised compositions are based on the same material, but cook it to make the best use of the material. Speaking of dishes, would it be French or Chinese? In the past, the distribution function was not enough, so fresh ingredients could not be tasted as they were, but now the situation has changed. With this in mind, it is hoped that modern improvisation will become a more important form of music. I have no choice but to improvise as a troublesome person. . In the past, there was a record recording method called direct cutting, but this was a tension. The performance of Gentle South led by Littner was full of tension. Well, around this time, the possibility of band music, including the weather report I wrote the other day, was at its maximum.

-- same creation note repeated until December 27(sorry) ---
I will never forget when I first heard Debussy's "claire de lune" . Nap time. I always heard only Czerny, Beyer,
Sonatine and so on, but the mysterious, warm and beautiful music has been heard. Melody and harmony you will not forget
once you listen. Above all it is free temperament. Advent of the kindly beautiful goddess. will not forget.

it's just too far removed from - #2194 by chair house 12172019


Today's pure primal piano music here. Happy if this  makes you feel peaceful.. : ) 

======== my creation note today ========
Continuing from yesterday, I want to pioneer a sound world that no one else can create, with beautiful harmony, rhythm, and melody intertwined in the right and left hand combinations. In addition, I want to master an approach that reduces the number of notes, increases the amount of time it takes, and makes the melody more heartfelt. Pursuit of ultimate beauty in limited conditions. Well, 10 years later, this style of piano tanka will be recognized in the world, and the artistic value of the piano albums will be deeply understood, and as a result it will aim to become a human national treasure. I thought of a big vision, but I will try my best. . Well, no money is needed to envision a vision.

he doesn't understand magic and passion - #2193 by chair house 12162019


======== my creation note today ========
Well the left hand is a chord and the right hand is a melody. What is important in that is how well melody and chords can be linked. Harmonic rhythms and arpeggios linked to the main melody and the individual sounds that make up the harmony. Its details incorporate the beauty of improvisation. The simplicity of performance (though it is not good) will embed various uncertainties in the timing and combination of sounds used (well, it's a harmony). The beauty is strange and the more it is processed later, the more it will be scraped off. This is the main reason I like improvisation. Because of this delicate beauty, I couldn't make music in the form of construction. It will be difficult to create this taste, so it would be difficult for those who are good at playing musical instruments to produce good things through improvisation.

he doesn't think in these terms - #2192 by chair house 12152019


======== my creation note today ========

I'm going to create 4536 songs, but I can't do it without a routine. Therefore, the resistance when creating is made small. Same as swimming. Water is 840 times more resistant than air, so try to minimize the resistance in the water. Then you can swim with a little propulsion. Creating a song is easy and simple, and is completed by playing the piano. This is fast. I decide to listen once to decide whether to make it or not. Recently, about 90% has been adopted. Is it about 10% to stop while playing? Occasionally, when I fall into a certain state, I have to replay it several times, but most of the time it is OK. It is good so far, but this is a little heavy (resistance is high). Decide the song title. Upload to soundcloud. Send blog in Japanese and English. Register on facebook. Put out on Twitter. Put it on another blog. This is the place. The song title decision is the most difficult. It can take many times as long as the song. Recently, I'm doing well because I have a good source, but I'm getting less. That's why it's a little short of an hour.

======== my creation note today ========

It was harmony yesterday, but today I will write about the melody. There is certainly a simple but deeply memorable melody. I want to listen to such a melody in a beautiful sound space. I hope that the melody will satisfy this sound world with its original and beautiful harmony. I am pursuing it every day and doing this activity. We are secretly hoping that the level will be improved by this daily dedication.

======== my creation note today ========

Harmony is difficult. . Well, there is a concept of code and scale, and it is theoretically and well organized, but nothing is born by the mechanical combination. . And the composition of overt chords and melodies is not beautiful. . The acquisition of a creative harmony that can be used intuitively is one of the ideals. . Search for an endless harmony forest. .

I don't want to learn harmony and don't want to understand the theory, but there is a good harmony. I want to use something that is intuitive and can be expected instantly.

======== my creation note today ========

The key is in the melody. Touching the chord is an important keyword. Even a monotonous tone of a piano may move with a melody of about 10 tones. There are many combination elements such as chords and bass melodies and timbres, but this is the main important part. In my case, there is no pre-determined melody, so the string of sounds that comes out just as you think is the melody. There is no repetition or form. . How does a good melody come down in my mind? . There is no doubt that this is an important key.
Well, like a cry of birds and whales? . Well, of course, since humans share the genes that search for reproductive partners by crying, is the truth lurking around here? Recently I have also listened to "Noh" and "Noh chanting" for a while. Exquisite spaces, utterances and changes in nature. . Exquisite balance of whistle, drum and voice. . Is there a hint here too?

======== my creation note today ========

The simpler the better. It seems paradoxical, but there are parts that I think so. People are more likely to evaluate something by deducting points. If you take a long time and create a perfect part, there will be a few imperfections that will pull you down and lower the overall rating. Is aiming at a higher level with fewer elements an obscene technique to avoid it?

A long time ago, I listened and compared the work that I had prepared and performed with the work that was improvised many times. So what I know is that no matter how prepared the work is, the implications of nature, freedom and freshness are not as good as improvisation. As a result, the time spent on music is reduced to the extreme and the value is maximized. It might be only for my case.

According to Tenshin Okakura, Bushido - the way of samurai, is "the art of death" and the tea ceremony is "the art of life". Tea is a work of art and requires the hands of a master to bring out its noble taste. Just as there are masterpieces and trashys in paintings, tea is good and bad. There is no secret for make a perfect tea.  It is the same thing that there is no fixed process of drawing Sesson's picture. Music is also the same creative world.
