I decided to start a YouTube membership service to let people know more about my music and to ask for your support in continuing my musical activities.
The membership will provide ad-free videos, behind-the-scenes footage of the making of music production that is not available to the public, advance releases of new songs and albums, downloadable album art, MP3 files (320 kbps) of live performances, DJMIXes, and other sound sources, and more.
The frequency of updates will vary from 2 to 4 times a month (depending on the level. Weekly for ad-free videos).
I hope to have a deep connection with listeners and myself through music.
Ambient Buddhism
Ambient music, as proposed by Brian Eno, is defined as "music that blends into the surrounding environment." It also has the ambiguity of music that is interesting but negligible. I believe this is similar to the Buddhist concept of ``awareness,'' which expands our consciousness and encourages us to become more deeply aware of our surroundings.
Buddhist thought places emphasis on letting go of personal ego and attachment, and ambient music also aims to blend into the background without attracting too much attention from the listener. This shows that both share an attitude of not pushing the ego or personal presence to the forefront.
Ambient music also provides the listener with a meditative experience. This has similarities with Buddhist meditation practices, indicating that both can function as a means of promoting inner calm and awareness.
I resonate with Buddhist thought in terms of harmony with the environment, transcending the ego, and expanding consciousness, and release music as "Buddhism that blends into the surrounding environment" as "Ambient Buddhism."
I created this album as a presentation to the extremely chaotic modern society.
