Business Overview

This project was inspired by Baudelaire's poem "Correspondances" in "Flowers of Evil". "〜 In the deep and dark unity, like the darkness of the night and the brightness of the sun, fragrance, sound and color echo each other 〜". Based on the image of a poem in which different elements such as “fragrance, ”“ sound, ” and “color ” correspond to each other in the spiritual world, the series embodies the appearance of the correspondence of three differences: the“ differences ” that arise between works by deliberately selecting musical works with different personalities and programming them; the “differences ” that arise from arranging the original music using various methods with the keyword“ paraphrase ”; and the “differences ” that arise from the correspondence between folk music and modern music newly created using Western methods.
