Three months before this single was released, my father was hospitalized in a large hospital due to bedsores. According to the hospital, he was in a critical condition and could pass away at any moment. He had been in a care facility, but he was not admitted to the hospital until his condition had worsened to the point where it was too late.
When I realized that my father might not survive, I thought about what I could do for him. Since he was unable to eat, I decided that even if he couldn't listen to it himself, I would compose a song dedicated to him. That's how I created The Path I Walked with My Father.

The Path I Walked with My Father"

父と歩いた道

In February, while working as a sound design instructor, a song came to mind that I wanted to share with my students. Unfortunately, I couldn't finish it in time. I eventually completed it afterwards, but wasn't satisfied with the result-so I rebuilt it from scratch and released it specifically for those students.
Due to some requests, I ended up singing it myself.
I've released English songs that I performed before, but this is the first time I've sung and released a Japanese song myself.

When I first tried to release a song on Tunecore, everyone laughed. However, three years have passed, and the number of views on the subscription has exceeded 50,000.

As a child, everyone had a dream. However, as he grew older, he experienced setbacks. Many people give up on their childhood dreams.

When I was in my twenties, I dreamed of becoming a musician, but it didn't work out, so I gave up.

However, a few years ago, he began to move towards his dream again, and the number of views exceeded 50,000.
I wrote this song because I wanted to convey that if you keep moving toward your dreams, there will be good things in their own way.

ハヤテ

Flawless (feat. iu, hayate & suu)

Not everyone, but many people have to leave the place they are familiar with for various reasons. For example, earthquakes, disasters, or for work. Some leave because they dislike the town where they were born and raised, but for most people, leaving a town filled with memories is a heartbreaking experience. This song expresses the feelings of a woman who must leave her hometown due to circumstances beyond her control.

Memory

Unrequited love

When I was young.
I wanted become Blues guitarist and release
my Blues album.
Then I practiced the guitar every day.
But I couldn't become Blues guitarist and 
release my Blues album.
Finaly, I gave up Blues guitarist.

After 25 years, I started playing 
the guitar again, because I am not young,
It's last chance for become Bluesman.

Now anybody can release music album.
And I can release my Blues album now.
My dream came true.

I challenged vocal for the first time.
I played all instruments without drums and 
piano.

This album includes few no blues song and 
I can't speak English very well.
Perhaps, my writing or pronunciation is a bit off

But please listen my blues album many times.

I Am Bluesman
