Song] is also planned. We produce a one-hour program featuring top Japanese artists as guests, in which we thoroughly learn about the “processes, techniques, and commitment” that go into creating music. The guest artist for the first episode, which aired from May this year, was sumika. In the second installment from July, four members of Official Hige Dandism appeared, *
In the latest episode, Superfly’s Shiho Ochi and music producer Kenji Kizaki appear as guests. *
Based on the theme of the popular new song “Charade” (theme song for NTV’s 10th TV drama “Maruhi no Mizuko-san”), the songwriter of this song, Superfly Ochi Shiho, the producer Kenji Kizaki and Miyata’s who were involved in the song. Lefty Ryo will talk about his thoughts on each creative.
How the suite-like, complex, and addictive “Charade,” which Mr. Kizaki describes as “progressive pop,” was born, what kind of work it is to produce music, and of course, the artist Superfly. The music talk, which captures the “essence” of manufacturing, such as how amazing it is, is worth listening to even if you are not a fan.
The talk includes topics such as “How can I express my individuality without pretending or embellishing?” and “Kodawari to create things that are good, satisfying, and that reach people.” It’s packed with helpful tips.
This is a homely music experience where the artist/producer himself talks about it in his own words, as if he were planning the song together in a music studio. How seriously and delicately do they approach songwriting while facing the times? What is the secret behind creating products that touch people’s hearts? We will introduce them in this program. Look forward to it.
