Music-specific crowdfunding "we fan" new project "# Ongaku no Chikara" started!

Music specialized crowdfunding service "we fan"
Announced the launch of a support program using this platform.


The world has started to change since the outbreak of the new corona.
We ask ourselves every day how we should proceed with it.

we fan was born as a crowdfunding platform specializing in music.
Because the mother company is a music label, management, live house, and event production company.
And it's because I've been thinking about what I can do for the music industry in the future.

Meanwhile, due to the influence of the new corona, the regular performance has stopped.
Next, the non-audience live is becoming impossible.
Recording will soon become unmanageable.
Under such circumstances, the field of activity for those involved in music has been narrowed.

We keep thinking about what we fans can do.
Music is always with us.
When I'm having fun, I listen to music and have more fun with everyone.
When I'm sad, I listen to music alone to comfort myself.
I think some people can live without music.
But we cannot live without music.
Many nights have been spent with music, and many mornings have been greeted with music.

We believe in "Ongaku no Chikara".

For all those who are suffering right now, and most of all, for the music that is struggling,
I want to do everything I can to be a we fan.

Have a day full of music with music.

all the we fans

April 8th is "Wool and Flower Day".

Acoustic duo "Wool and Flower" of "Chiba Hana" and "Ichikawa Kazunori" passed away at the young age of 36 in 2015.
April 8th, which is also Chiba Hana's death anniversary, was held as "Wool and Flower Day" at "Yohana = 487" every year.
This year, a special program will be produced and video distribution will be performed.

The video was recorded at Bang & Olufsen Ginza with Mr. Soichiro Suzuki, who was also the producer of Yomo to Hana.
Mr. Suzuki carefully talked about the memories of the two of them at the time and the secret story behind the production of the famous song "Sora ga Shirokutesa" when watching live footage of past live performances using the best digital speakers that Bang & Olufsen boasts to the world.
In addition, it is said that many unreleased rare videos such as rehearsal videos and behind-the-scenes videos will be recorded in this volume.

The song "Ashita wa," was used as the theme song for the movie "Momi no Ie" released this year, and was used as a commercial song for an electric power company last year. Even after many years, he continues to deliver warm messages to people's hearts.
The video will be available from 19:00 on April 8th on the special site "Wool and Flower Day".

[Comment from Mr. Soichiro Suzuki]
I think it's okay to use the word "emergency", but in this situation, I'm thinking about the meaning and importance of celebrating the day of wool and flowers.
It is easy to say that music is not essential to human life itself. No, it's not.
At times like this, I need the power of singing. Once again, I completely understand. We are saved by the music of wool and flowers.
It's never exaggerated, I know that their songs are needed now.

Soichiro Suzuki

[Comment from Nanako Koyama, representative of Lucy+K]
Five years have passed since then.
This year will be the 6th time we have organized Wool and Flower Day.
I would be happy if you could remember and feel the important people who are far away through wool and flower day.
Also, this year, as a special program after the chorus, Mr. Soichiro Suzuki, whom the two of them respect and respect, spoke with flowers.
I personally feel that the music and artists that are loved are naturally inherited. Thank you for your continued support of wool and flowers.

Solar eclipse Natsuko writes a new song "Hyakumanri" for the Iwakuji Yamagata Shorthorn Beef theme song, and will be released on April 1st (Wednesday)!


Nisshoku Natsuko, a singer-songwriter who plays the piano, has written a new song "Hyakumanri" for the theme song of "Iwakuji Yamagata Shorthorn Beef" raised in her hometown of Iwate Prefecture.
The song, which is said to have "converted a huge life force into sound and words", was actually produced by visiting the site, and the sound consists only of piano and drums. It is a finish that makes you feel the lightness of the heartbeat of those who have passed winter and waited for spring, and the strength to step on the earth and move forward.
You can listen to the music on the Iwakuji Yamagata Village Shorthorn Beef Fattening Committee website, and be sure to check it out along with the video shot by photographer Atsushi Okuyama.

In addition, distribution release will be decided on April 1 (Wednesday). From the same day, you can listen to it from each music distribution site.

▼Natsuko's comment on the solar eclipse
In May 2019, in order to create "Hyakumanri", I actually went to the plateau where tankaku cattle were pastured.

The sky is too close and too deep because of a small mountain.
No matter how far you look around 360 degrees, the horizon of green grass never ends.
When I crouched there and closed my eyes, I could feel the vibrations of the cows running across the grassland, the snorts that seemed to blow them away, the gazes that were staring at me, and many other signs.

The huge life force that I felt from those cows was converted into sounds and words and put together into one song.
If you close your eyes and listen, you will surely be standing on that plateau at that moment.

Kariyushi 58, "Kakera" MV released from new album. …Maybe this song was a gift from Heavenly Mother.

Kariyushi 58 released a new album "Bandwagon" on February 22nd, celebrating its 14th anniversary.
The MV of the new song "Kakera" from the latest work "Bandwagon" containing 15 songs has been released!

This song was composed by Naoki Miyahira, a guitarist, and was written for his twin brother who is about to get married.
The lyrics of vocalist Shingo Maekawa, which overlaps there, reflect the encounters and partings of people, the beauty, bonds, and fragility of what is called a family.
It is an impressive song with a gentle and painful melody that wraps around all of that.

The released MV puts the song on the scenery of the younger brother's wedding that triggered the song, and the happiness and sadness of one family are reflected brilliantly.
The content is very touching.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
<Comment from Naoki Miyahira>
Maybe this song was a gift from my mother in heaven.

As much as I think so, it was a coincidence and each of our thoughts overlapped and formed a shape.
I am also grateful that I was able to leave a picture of my mother, who passed away 15 years ago.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

From this work "Bandwagon", 4 music videos including "Kakera" have already been released, and more will be announced in the future.
Ahead of the tour "High Sai Road 2020-Bandwagon-" with this album,
Don't miss the movement of Kariyushi 58, which is sure to add more fun!

"Image Song" MUSIC VIDEO released from Gagaga SP latest album

Gagaga SP released the MUSIC VIDEO of "Image no Uta", the lead song from the latest album "Strange Pitcher" to be released on March 18 (Wednesday).

Last year, the set list consisted only of songs from the debut single "Kyoko-chan" to the second album "Ola Aichinuketa".
They embarked on a “reproduction tour of their early work” and once again showed their potential as a live band, selling out at live houses all over the country. The lead song of this work, "Image no Uta," was performed on that tour and was eagerly awaited to be made into a sound source.

Unlike the up-tempo atmosphere of the songs that are unique to Gagaga SP so far, this work shows the appearance of a medium-taste rock number, and the lyrics spelled out with unadorned words are excellent. It is a new band anthem that arrived in the first year.

* Gagaga SP "Image Song" MUSIC VIDEO
https://youtu.be/ihrCqb0ABVM

*Comment from Gagaga SP guitarist Satoshi Yamamoto
“I think there are connections with people you didn’t mean to, like friends you haven’t seen before, lovers you broke up with after a fight, and people you didn’t mean to. It's a song that I made while thinking of something like contacting someone I haven't seen in years."

In addition, Gagaga SP will hold a live tour with the latest album "Strange Pitcher".
Starting from April 8th (Wednesday) Kobe VARIT., June 14th (Sunday) Shizuoka UMBER will be a joint band tour, from June 24th (Wednesday) Shibuya La.mama to August 29th (Saturday) Osaka MUSE. as a one-man tour, visiting all 16 places.
