Yoshida Brothers 15th Anniversary Special vol. 5: Hishou

POSTED ON 07/16/2014

To celebrate their 15th Anniversary, we offer a special promotion on each album every 15 days.

We are featuring their 2007 released (US) album “Hishou” until July 31st.

YB_15thbanner_vol.5

This album is just pure shamisen virtuosity. They didn’t use any other instruments like Guitars or Taiko Drum.
Yoshida Brothers covered some of their original songs, traditional Japanese songs, and played new songs on this album.

HISHOU (“flying” or “souring” in Japanese) continues the exploration of marrying new phrasings to traditional sounds. The result is at once sentimental and respectful of the past, while also forging a sonic bridge to the future. Having explored rock and world music themes in previous releases, this album marks a return to basics for the brothers, highlighting their commitment to and reverence for the historic art of Tsugaru-Shamisen.

Luna’s Interview on Live Relentless

POSTED ON 06/23/2014

Live Relentless just posted Gayageum artist Luna‘s interview on their website.

0622luna_liverelentless

HOW DID YOU GET INTO MUSIC?

I started with learning the piano when I was young and my parents saw how much I enjoyed it, and then they decided to help me out to be a musician. I think they wanted me to play something special, and at that time Gayageum was a pretty rare instrument to play in Korea. I think that was a brilliant idea from them.

WHAT ALL IS INVOLVED IN PRODUCING YOUR MUSIC ASIDE FROM PLAYING THE GAYAGEUM INSTRUMENT?

In the case of the footage uploaded on my YouTube channel, I work on making the backing-tracks and do a simple mixing and mastering, which is a reason for it to take a bit of time to upload the videos. I believe this effort other than playing the Gayageum, obviously is a big help to satisfy my fans too.
