Description

[Machine Translation] Listen to the second song. You can hear how wonderful Tokiwa Kinoshita is after her solo live performance in Russia. Tempo" means "time" in Portuguese. The 12 songs are about "time" and looking at "time". Recorded at home studio and in Nanayama, Saga, feeling the breath of the mountains. All songs were recorded simultaneously with guitarist Niimi Hiromasa, and his narrative accompaniment is a must-hear. All songs are covers, with only vocals and gut guitar sounds. The album contains songs from the Showa period and bossa nova, but there is no sense of discomfort when you listen to the whole album. The songs that would never be mixed on a regular album coexist here. This is an indication that Tokiwa Kinoshita is not bound by genres, but is only concerned with "serious music. The addition of Hiromasa Niimi's guitar and arrangement, which responds to her request and strengthens her world view, creates a "unique exotic feeling" that surrounds and harmonizes the entire album. There is a certain beauty that reaches not only discerning music connoisseurs, but also non-music connoisseurs and those who do not listen to music.

Description in Japanese

Tempo / 木下ときわ

2曲目を聴いてみてください。ロシアでの単独ライブを経験した木下ときわの素敵さがわかります。「Tempo」とはポルトガル語で「時、時間」の意味です。「時」に寄り添い、「時」を見つめる12のうた。自宅スタジオと、佐賀・七山にて山の息吹を感じながらレコーディング。全てギタリスト新美博允との同時録音で、語りかけるような伴奏も聞きどころ。全曲カバー、ヴォーカルとガットギターの音しかしないアルバムです。昭和の歌謡曲とボサノバなどが含まれていますが、アルバムを通して聴いても違和感がありません。通常のアルバムでは混在する事のない楽曲たちが同居しています。これは木下ときわがジャンルという部分に縛られず、「マジメな音楽であるか」だけにこだわっている事の現れです。そこに彼女の要求に応え、世界観を強化する新美博允のギターとアレンジが加わる事で"独特の異国感"のようなものが全体を包んで調和しています。耳の肥えた音楽通にはもちろんですが、音楽通ではない人達、むしろ音楽を聴かない人達にも届く確かな美しさがあります。
