Profile

[nagalu]
This group was founded in 2022 by drummer and composer Shinya Fukumori. Fukumori himself, who has been in the spotlight for his work in Germany, the United States and other places around the world, will be the producer, and he will send out a new form of music that can only be born in the unique atmosphere of Japan and Asia. Their motto is "flowing water, unspoiled." Like water flowing without stagnation, I aim to create music that transforms fading sounds into scenery and makes nostalgic scenery seem like a new encounter. It is an organization that blows a new wind in the contemporary Japanese and Asian scenes.
