|  | | muque “Dungeon” |
|
| | Work introduction | | A 4-piece band based in Fukuoka consisting of Kenichi (Gt), Lenon (Ba), takachi (Track make & Dr), and Asakura (Vo&Gt). Formed in May 2022. It is produced mainly by Takachi, who is a drummer but also handles track makeup/arranging, and Asakura, who is in charge of top line/lyrics. Takachi's highly contemporaneous track, which likes music from all over the world, including ASIAN global beats, not just the US and UK, and Asakura's lyrical world of lyrics and melody line that has a sense of harmony are its biggest charms. This is his 1st full album, his first physical work. In addition, his first one-man tour to support this work, which will be held from November, will be sold out at all four locations in Tokyo, Mei, and Hanpuku. As an additional performance, a one-man show will be held at Ebisu LIQUIDROOM in January 2025. The next break band that is attracting the most attention in the young music scene. | | Tower Recommendator Comment | | Recommended by: Nagoya PARCO store/Takano/Abeno Hoop store/Akama/Ario Yao store/Miyamoto/Sapporo PARCO store/Nakanishi/Namba Parks store/Matsuda | | The light and Reiwa sound is brilliant with POP that will captivate the listener! The catchy sound that pierces the heart and the addictive singing of vocalist Asakura are unique. Stunning sense and charm |
