中学生の頃、
ふとTVで観たBobby Brownの"Every Little Step"のPVが
ブラックミュージック、そして歌--ダンス?--㠁«å‚¾å€’していくきっかけに。
それからSoul、R&B、HipHop、Jazzといった
ブラックミュージックを聴き漁り辿り着いた ・・・、
Stevie Wonder "You Are The Sunshine Of My Life"
この曲でシンガーへの道を決定付ける事にな る。
大学在学中にヴォイストレーニングを受けな がら
都内のクラブのイヴェント出演や、
コーラスグループの活動、オリジナル制作を 行う。
そして96年頃のNew Classic Soulのムーヴメントで
Stevieを聴いた時と同じ様な電撃を感じ、
さらにJazz、Latin、HipHopの消化--昇華--吸収に゠‚切磋琢磨。
自分のスタイルが定まる。
そうしてプロミュージシャンGary Scott氏に師事し、
オリジナルの共同制作や同氏の在籍する
"The Fuse"のバックコーラスを務め、
さらなる音楽経験を積んでいく。
With the opportunity when PV of "Every Little Step" of Bobby Brown which I watched in TV in the days of a junior high student incidentally devotes itself to in black music and a song (a dance?).
Then ... which I hear Soul, R & B, HipHop, Jazz and the black music which went and hunt and arrived at, Stevie Wonder "You Are The Sunshine Of My Life" will determine a way to a singer in this music.
I produce event appearance of a club of Tokyo and activity of a chorus group, an original while taking voice training during university attendance at school.
And I feel time and the similar electric shock that heard Stevie in a movement of New Classic Soul of about 96 and work together in competition for Jazz, Latin, digestion (sublimation) absorption of HipHop more.
One's style is decided. In that way I study under Mr. professional musician Gary Scott and act as original coproduction and a backup signer of "The Fuse" which he is registered at and load further music experience.
