People ask me how I make music. I tell them I
just step into it.It's like stepping into a river and
joining the flow. Every moment in the river has
it's song. So I stay in the moment and listen.
What I hear is never the same. A walk
through the woods brings a light, crackling
song:Leaves rustle in the wind, birds chatter and
Squirrels scold, twigs crunch underfoot, and
the beat of my ハート, 心 holds it all together. When
あなた 登録する the flow, the 音楽 is inside and outside,
and both are the same. As long as I can listen to
the moment, I'll always have music.
