TOKYO World has released their new single, “Welcome To TOKYO SEKAI” today, Friday, February 7th.
This work is about wanting listeners to learn more about “What is the TOKYO world?” and wanting them to forget about the real world when things get pitch black due to worries about the future or complexes. It is said to be a song that was produced. NOAH, who also showed outstanding compatibility in his latest EP “Roman,” has a striking beat with a sound that combines modern rock with 80s city pop elements and a pleasant melody, making TOKYO’s world a different story from the real world. It is a work that invites you to the world.
Following “Roman,” the engineer was Kanie Sho, who is from the same hometown as TOKYO world. In addition, the latest artist visuals and artwork were filmed by YURI HORIE, a photographer from Tokyo who continues to photograph “Roman” and was filmed as the location.Drive-in DenThe design was created by up-and-coming artist KID ROSE, who also designed the film. It skillfully visualizes the world of TOKYO and the world of the song.
Furthermore, on Saturday, May 17th, it has been decided that he will be holding his first solo live performance, “Welcome to TOKYO World” at WWW X, Shibuya, Tokyo. The fastest tickets have begun to come as the first come first served tickets. In addition to the regular standing, tickets will also be provided with a CD from the first album scheduled to be released this spring (the CD will be delivered to the venue on the day).
[TOKYO World Comments]
①About the new song “Welcome To TOKYO SEKAI”
This song was created with the desire to let everyone know what “TOKYO Sekai” is! This was created with the desire to help everyone forget about the real world when things go pitch black due to worries about their future or complexes! The beat is a combination of modern rock sound with 80’s CITY POP elements, and I think it was possible to create a worldview that is different from the real world with a rare fantasy sound and pleasant melody, so please listen to it. I would like you to do it!
②About the solo live “Welcome to TOKYO World”
I have always been inferior to others and have been different to others, so I have been a life where I have been made fun of or denied. I wasn’t doing anything bad, but I was supposed to be working so hard, but I was being blamed and scorned, and I thought there was no place for me in this world.
That’s why I started music because I wanted to create a place for my ideal, so that I could not be blamed by anyone, feel inferior, and feel like I could live even if I couldn’t do anything. In this solo live performance, I would like to convey that there is a place for people who have similar worries as me. Not only will we create a space where everyone can forget about the unpleasant reality and want to come back here, but we also have fun, and we can see myself looking at me and feel a concrete hope, not abstract, or happiness. I would like to make this a live performance where I can feel the way I can become. Of course, people who know me, why am I the only one who can’t do it well? Why am I the only one who is different from others? Or what is your purpose in existence? I would like anyone who has such concerns to come too!
The lyrics of “Welcome To TOKYO SEKAI” released this time say “admission is free,” but if you’re a solo player, you’ll be charged an admission fee! sorry! In addition to the regular tickets, there are also advance tickets that come with a CD of my all-round first album, scheduled to be released around spring this year, so please take a look!
I’m already nervous because of my first solo concert, but we have a lot of bombs ready to make everyone enjoyable, so please come and visit us! !
