He was a kindergarten child who responded to the Beatles and ABBA records his brother listened to. At that time, it was strange why the children around me didn't know ABBA. I wanted to learn drums naturally in the upper grades of elementary school, so I took a bus for about an hour and attended a drum school. The first band I formed in middle school was the cover band of LÄ-PPISCH, Litchiri and Bob Murray when I was in high school, and the original P-Funk band where the front wears a diaper when I'm an adult. Until I stopped playing music at the age of 26 when I first formed the band, I only played drums.

Thinking carefully, I started ink painting when I was 18 years old, so drums have a much older history, and for eight years when I had both ink painting and a band, I felt like I was hitting a hi-hat with my right hand while drawing with my left hand. It was structured. It was the same work for me, though.

Even now, when I listen to music, my writing brush advances, so I often draw while listening to something. However, only when I think about the composition, I silence it. Think silently and calmly, and when you have a convincing image, start playing the favorite song you prepared for the first time. It tends to be a drumming-focused song, but I don't like groovy funk that sits on my waist. It seems that my finger mistakes the brush for a drumstick, and when I notice it, the brush jumps too much, adding extra lines and making the size bigger. (Lol)

It seems that a proper balance is required for song selection.
