This tune is one of the tunes composed for butoh-dance performance "Senba-ori". The performance by Himeshara-juku.
This performance was made based on the folk tale in Japan.
The play of that folk tale greatly became popular in Japan of the 1970's.
The theme of this tune is to compare folktronica that greatly became popular in the world in the 2000's with melancholic folk songs that greatly became popular in Japan in the 1970's.
When a tune different from their own styles was able to be made well, most professional musicians are pleased.
When this tune was made, I felt a deep sense of accomplishment.
And, the dance performance succeeded roughly, too.
However, I hesitated to up-load this tune to Web.
A tune different from my style.
At that time, do people feel admiration? confused? or disappointed?
Had better I upload more the music of my style?
I thought considerably and finally stopped thinking.
I feel the impulse that this tune that is not my style is opened to the public. This tune might take me/us somewhere. That is why.
----
Hadome(Ha-Do-Me) is "Brake" or "Limit" if it translates literally.
However, there is a peculiar omission method in Japanese.
I think, it is "Brakeless" or "Unlimited" when Hadome is translated freely.

If you live in Japan, you can buy my albums at BOOK CLUB KAI , Nadiff Modern, gallery5 and STRIPED HOUSE GALLERY.

If you live in countries other than Japan, You can buy my some important works at
CD Baby.
Amazon of some countries sells my works. ( ex. Amazon.com, Amazon.fr ) Amazon seems to wholesale from CD Baby. Therefore, these are a little more expensive than another shop.

CD Baby was promised me to Digital Distribution.
Therefore, Many digital shops like
iTunes Music Store,  Napster, and etc available.

But, The live performance and the recording music are another for me.
Therefore, Please don't forget my CD is ORIGINAL. These are not "copy".

Most of my tune is long.
And, it is easy to make an error of a long tune in myspace.
Therefore, all my tunes in myspace are edited at about five minutes.

I like delicate sound.
However, a delicate sound is not so liked in the world.
And, people who can listen to a delicate sound by the Internet are in the minority.
Therefore, my tune in myspace is narrowed a dynamic-range by using "Limiter" and "Maximizer".

Serious fishery damage.
A lot of corpses of seabird.
Severe recovery efforts by kept patient volunteers.
Discovery of bacteria that resolves crude petroleum.

"Compose the occurrence in these ten years to a dramatic tune of about 20 minutes."
Moe YAMAMOTO who is Director of Kanazawa-Butoh-kan demanded to me.
That was quite a hard work for me. (I do not usually have an economical, political, ecological, and scientific inspirations.)
A completed tune is 25 minutes. The title of this tune is "Crude petroleum and Sea. "
I edited this tune about 6:24 for myspace.
It is "Crude petroleum and sea: the digest".
