program music III - KASHIWA Daisuke

KASHIWA Daisuke is going to release his 9th full-length album in 3 years, consisting of only one song, "sons", which is over 51 minutes long.
This is the third in the "program music" series, which is built on the theme set by himself and has gained many fans around the world.

The unstable social situation in the wake of the corona crisis, and the various people and families that are affected by it. While forced to live a life different from the one he had been forced to lead in the past, He was reminded once again of the existence of human connections and family, but what he arrived at was an extremely personal work.
This song, which KASHIWA himself describes as "everything I've ever done in my music career," tells a grand story that transcends the boundaries of all genres, yet at the same time, it seems to contain a fundamental human theme of a severely introverted family.

Despite its length, there is no element of boredom, with a lyrical and beautiful piano and violin melody to a roaring post-rock band ensemble, a pop and rhythmic approach to an aesthetic and classical expression folded into an electronica-driven arrangement, and even a click From house, drum 'n' bass, and ambient to contemporary techniques like grandiose film music, minimal music, rap, and choruses, all in a single song, the result is a dizzying array of expressions.

At a time when instant listening environments such as Spotify are at their zenith, it can be said that his stance on this project goes against the flow of the times, and is the one and only song that best expresses his desire to express music as an art form rather than a commercial tool, and is eagerly awaited by listeners in Japan and around the world. program music III will be Daisuke's masterpiece.
As Daisuke's masterpiece, "program music III" is sure to leave a lasting impression on listeners.
