Sekai

Kariu Kenji, the leader of the Tokyo-based band "OWKMJ", has released his third solo album in nine

years! This is a new release from Bruit Direct Disques, a French label that has also released Tori Kudo

and Mamitri Yulith Empress Yonagunisan. It is a masterpiece/problematic piece of work that took its

time and was produced almost entirely by one person in the midst of the corona crisis, and is a significant

leap forward in terms of sound design, composition, and vocals. If "OWKMJ" is a "dynamic" sound that

crosses various genres, then this album is a "quiet" , an expression of the various performances/listening

experiences internalized in the memory of its creator.
