■ "Dead girl" subscription worldwide distribution startNEW


"Dead Girl" was composed by Yuzo Toyama, one of Japan's leading composers, who read the translated lyrics of a poem by Turkish social poet Nazim Hikmet translated into Japanese by Russian literary scholar Nobuyuki Nakamoto.This is an anti-war song that expresses the tragedy of the atomic bomb and the earnest feeling against the war on behalf of a girl who was burned by the flames of the atomic bomb.
Arranged and produced by Ryuichi Sakamoto, who sadly passed away in March this year, this song was recorded in New York in 3 on the night of August 2005, the 60th anniversary of the dropping of the atomic bomb. , Sakamoto's piano and Moto Chitose's singing, which was broadcast live from in front of the Hiroshima Atomic Bomb Dome on TBS series "NEWS8", gave a great impression and shock.
Since 2005, we have been distributing single songs for a limited time every year in August, the anniversary of the atomic bombing and the anniversary of the end of the war. We have decided to start subscription distribution for.
I hope that this song will reach more people, and that the thoughts of Ryuichi Sakamoto and others will be inherited, and that it will be an opportunity for them to think about peace.



Moto Chitose "The Dead Girl"

2022 The 7rd "Akatsuki no Kane", which is the end of the 5 months in a row from the songs recorded in the 3th original album, which is scheduled to be released in July 3, has started!

Yuta Orisaka, an up-and-coming singer-songwriter, wrote, composed, and arranged the lyrics, the beautiful melody that spreads over the bold band sound, and the gentle yet powerful singing of the original Chitose, which is the heart of the listener. A song that resonates deeply with.

This song, which incorporates various past events that must not be forgotten and feelings for the deceased, can be called "our song that lives in the present" in the continuous flow of time.

The jacket of this work will continue to be designed by Mitsuo Shindo, who has worked on numerous original Chitose Hajime artworks since his debut.Please pay attention to the scenery that changes with the music.


<Message from Yuta Orisaka>

This song was inspired by listening to the album "Heiwa Gannen".
I don't want to forget that I am now on top of wars, disasters, and many lost futures.Do not cover the accumulation.
Warning bells and blessings from the past.I made it while thinking about how to live now, remembering "you" who is no longer there.

――Yuta Orisaka ――

This song is written and composed by Tomoyuki Nagasawa, a singer-songwriter who belongs to the same Office Augusta.Produced with powerful members such as Yuzuru Kashiwabara (Fishmans, Polaris) on bass, Yuko Araki on drums, Kenta Yamamoto on piano, and Genichi Tamura (Lonesome Strings, Little Tempo) on steelpan.It is a message song with a colorful sound based on the rhythm of reggae and a song with a prayer for peace.
The jacket is designed by Mitsuo Shindo, who has worked on numerous original Chitose works since his debut, following the first pre-delivery "Waiting for the Ship".Please pay attention to the scenery that changes with the music.
Along with the start of distribution, we also released a lyric video of this song.In March of this year, in response to the current situation surrounding the world, with the desire to "deliver as soon as possible", along with the lyric video of the rough mix ver. Please look.


<Message from Tomoyuki Nagasawa>

The foot of the rainbow is a song that encourages action.
It's a serious song.
It's not a prayer song, but "OK. Let's make a roadmap. Let's make a schedule. Let's decide the destination. Let's go together when and when." It's a realistic song for people who go.

I personally believe that the act of "prayer" is meaningful because of the environment in which I grew up.
However, when you are alive, you will encounter problems that cannot be solved by themselves.
However, just talking about the ideal does not help.
 
In such a case, what is needed is the ability to act.
Imagine, instead of looking up and saying, "It's beautiful ...", I think about how to put it down in the real world in front of me and experience it.
I'll make it happen.
I think that's what makes my dreams come true.

This is not a dream, but a real-world song.
It's a song for people who believe and move, "I'm heading there with you!"
 
――Tomoyuki Nagasawa ――

"The foot of the rainbow" (rough mix ver.) Lyric Video




■ Release of the first "Waiting for the Ship" and lyric video release for 3 consecutive months from the NEW album!




In July 2022, it was decided to release the 7th original album for the first time in 4 years since the 14th album "Cassini"!
Prior to the release of the album, new songs recorded in the album will be released in advance for 4 consecutive months from April.
The first is "Waiting for the Ship", in which Shintaro Sakamoto participated in the songwriting, composition, arrangement, and performance.Sakamoto-san's original sound is accompanied by Chitose Hajime's swaying vocals, and the song is comfortable, but it feels like you're drawn to a different dimension while listening to it.
In addition, we have released a lyric video with the motif of the jacket design by Mitsuo Shindo, who has worked on many artworks of Chitose Hajime's work since his debut, so please have a look.
We will keep you informed about the songs and albums after the second pre-delivery, so please look forward to it.

======================
<Message from Shintaro Sakamoto>

  Congratulations on the 20th anniversary of Chitose Hajime.I am honored to be able to participate in the new album.
"Waiting for the ship" was made in Tokyo with a delusional full rotation, imagining Amami Oshima, which I have never been to, in Tokyo.
In addition to songwriting, I am grateful that I am free to arrange, perform, record, and mix.
While working this time, I was once again impressed by the overwhelming presence and expressiveness of Mr. Moto's vocals.
It seems that my delusional scenery has emerged with the power of Moto-san's song, and the blue sea is really spreading in front of me. I've listened to it again and again.
I would like everyone to listen to it.
――Shintaro Sakamoto ――

Live / Event

■Amami Shimauta live “Motouta Yugen - Banquet - Vol.1” will be held!NEW


The Amami folk song "Shima Uta" is the root of Motochitose and the origin of music.
While continuing to convey his charm as one of the singers representing his hometown, Amami Oshima, in recent years he has released ``Harvest Festival with Folk Song Crusaders'' (included in ``Moto Uta - Moto Chitose Amami Shima Uta Collection'' released in 2018) and remix work `` In collaboration with artists and creators from different genres, such as “Genuta Yugen ~Moto Chitose Amami Shimauta REMIX~” and “Yoisura Bushi (Meichou REMIX)” (included in “Niji no Fumoto” released in 2022), we have created a new version of Shimauta. I have also been working on pursuing form.
Usually at live shows, we only perform a few songs mixed in with pop songs, but this time we will focus on Shimauta and deliver the entire live performance exclusively to Shimauta!
This is an experimental piece that you can enjoy while enjoying everything from traditional styles to new forms of Shima-uta with new interpretations and live arrangements. This is the first part of the live series.
Please enjoy the new songs born from the fusion of various instruments and music, the profound music that takes you to another world.

I met such high school students who don't let 'dreams' end with 'dreams'.

“Oshima High School Baseball Club”

It is difficult to accumulate game experience,
I can't say that I'm blessed with practice time and environment
A record of two and a half years of them chasing their dreams with all their might.

Ordinary high school students, high school teachers, and islanders
The story of each "searching for happy clover".

■ "Dead girl" live video release



The live video of "Dead Girls" from the one-man live "Augusta Camp in U-NEXT ~Favorite Songs~ Vol.7" held on July 27th has been released on YouTube.
"Dead Girl" was composed by Yuzo Toyama, one of Japan's leading composers, who read the translated lyrics of a poem by Turkish social poet Nazim Hikmet translated into Japanese by Russian literary scholar Nobuyuki Nakamoto.This is an anti-war song that expresses the tragedy of the atomic bomb and the earnest feeling against the war on behalf of a girl who was burned by the flames of the atomic bomb.
今年3月に惜しまれつつこの世を去った坂本龍一氏がアレンジ・プロデュースを務めた本楽曲は、2005年、ニューヨークでレコーディングが行われ、原爆投下から丸60年を迎えた8月6日の夜、TBS系「NEWS23」で広島・原爆ドーム前から生中継された坂本氏のピアノと元ちとせの歌唱は大きな感動と衝撃を与えました。以降毎年、原爆の日・終戦記念日のある8月に期間限定で配信されてきたほか、2015年にリリースした「忘れない~繰り返さない」をテーマに平和への思いを込めたカバーアルバム『平和元年』にも収録、そして、このライブが行われた7月27日からはサブスクリプション世界配信がスタートしています。

In addition, the live performance of "Augusta Camp in U-NEXT ~Favorite Songs~ Vol.2" will be exclusively distributed on U-NEXT from August 8 (Wednesday).
