Yola sup dood, how r u mang?
We are super hyper mega giga fine!

JINMO released his 126th album "Life 120825".
We are happy to announce that the release of "Life 120728" for download and "Life 120825" in High Quality CD at the same time.

------------------------------------------------------------

" 'Life'... Sei; Shou; Inochi (Life) : life; living. Nama ( Raw; crude) : being in a natural condition; not processed or refined. Ubu (Innocent) : innocent, the state in which it was born greenly. Ki (Pure) : underlying; unmodified by an admixture; simple or homogeneous. *The description explains the meaning of the Kanji character which means 'Life'.
We are not able to establish the definition of "life" yet, we continue to face 'life' with each passing moment in our life.
'Life' is a reality that does not reach the encoding. Is the original ecological form of life." (JINMO)

JINMO's 126th solo album, the title is "Life 120825".

http://www.jinmo.com/00/en/sonicart/discography/AADL/107life120825.html

Following his live album ...no, it should be called his "Life" album...
The newest album of the great popularity "Life" series, it is the live recording of his unaccompanied guitar solo show.

Yes, it is his "Life 120825".
This is a live recording of his live show held on Saturday, 25 August 2012.

In the night "Life 120825", as if he was obsessed-up, suddenly he referred to Chikuzan Takahashi for tens of minutes, just before the performance.
Then he started to play 1 hour long tune of "Gou Gou Chikuzan".
Audience were shuddering for long time though the show's over with deeply impressed by JINMO's desperate performance like Itako prayer such as invoking departed souls, and certain signs of departed souls which were filled the venue.
The emergence of "No border between the living and the dead", as JINMO says, was exactly out there.

The recording has done completely with stereo microphone, without any line signals at all.
The track has only fixed the sound quality on the editing but it is exactly raw sound on the show.
No overdubbing on editing, no effect such as samplers on playing.
Every sound had emitted only by a guitar with JINMO's 10 fingers.

Following description is JINMO's words in the invitation to the show "Life 120825".

・・・

"Two major activities as a musician, "concert" and "composing".
Of these, I've realized almost of my ideal for composing by download release from Avant-attaque.
It made possible to liberate the release timing in response to the intention of the artist, and fully liberalization of contents or sizes.

And the other one, concert, I have attempted various styles to be close to my ideal for a long time.
I wish my concerts would be the "birthplace of new things".
Strongly, I strongly wish so.
That's the place there are no pre-established harmony, no trial-and-error or expressions for the expectations of audiences.
There is Jubilus to meet unexpected "something new", and I wish to be illuminated by unexpected Jubilus that even the player itself unexpected.
At the same time, I wish the people who were there, were not mere spectators.
I wish they were witnesses of an event or a phenomenon, were spiritual cooperators who wish the coming of Jubilus with me, and I wish they were the one who illuminated by Jubilus to meet "something new".
I gave a name "Life" to the jubilant moment that born "something new".
Life is live, life is everyday.
The place suitable for the birth of new things, it would not be an existing commercial space for music industry.
At last we got the place ready for it.
And the people who being illuminated by Jubilus together, I decided to limit the invitation to the one who would be Jubilus.
The attendees for the occasion, are 12 people except me.
At last, I wish you would be the one of them, I strongly wish so.

We are super hyper mega giga fine!

JINMO released his 125th album "ZENith Air".
We are happy to announce that the release of "ZENith Air" for download and "ZENith Air" in High Quality CD at the same time.
A long waited JINMO's new "psycho acoustic ambient" album such as his famous albums "Ascension Spectacle", Jubilus" series, "Schumann Romance" and "The Brain Tuner"...here comes another door of perception "ZENith Air".

http://www.jinmo.com/00/en/sonicart/discography/AADL/106zenithair.html

JINMO says the word in the title "ZENith" means "spiritual zenith".
And "Air" is the one of the elemental 4, Air, Earth, Fire and Water, it means that this new "psycho acoustic ambient" album is the first one of forthcoming tetralogy.

Following description is JINMO's words for the tetralogy "ZENith".

・・・

More, I want to perceive universe more.

“If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, Infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro' narrow chinks of his cavern.”
- William Blake, "The Marriage of Heaven and Hell"

The eardrum vibrates and the auditory cells convert it into a weak electrical current, then the brain perceives it as sound. It is "normal stream" of an auditory system.
However, I realize that there is "another stream" in addition to "normal stream".

Not only auditory cells, visual cells or sensory cells, not a metaphor, I'm literally thinking that every cell has some kind of sensibility.

Not only the cell itself, but also the mitochondria in the cell, it perceives outside of its own and conduct itself.
Leukocytes also does.
I feel that we are not individual, we are aggregation as a cluster of sensory organs.

I want to know.
714-X somatid, how do somatids perceive the world?

"Beauty" is not only visible (art works), nor audible (music) .
"Beauty" is shining on all of the five senses. Every sense is not isolated from other senses, it influences each other and it keeps uninterrupted input while generates new "Beauty" just like alteration within the alchemist's mortar.
The world is full of beauty, thus I do not believe the finiteness of human perception.

Abundant "Beauty", it exists below the threshold of conscious perception.
It certainly exists.
Nucleus of "beauty", if anything, it doesn't float on the apparent surface.

More, I want to perceive the universe more.
Gaze upon ZENith.
The key to the door of the perception is there.

(JINMO)

JINMO released his 124th album "Life 120728".
We are happy to announce that the release of "Life 120728" for download and "Life 120728" in High Quality CD at the same time.

------------------------------------------------------------

Tonight theme became "The Sea of Fertility".
I have no thoughts or feelings in advance as usual, I put myself into action as a medium  (I have no idea what I play), So I have never described to the audience about it before and after the performance.
However, after the performance, Miss HARI said "I felt that Yukio Mishima was here tonight." and I shivered with her words."
(JINMO, just after his explosive performance on 28th July 2012)

JINMO's 124th solo album, the title is "Life 120728".

Yes, it is his "Life 120728".
This is a live recording of his live show held on Saturday 28 July 2012.

In the night "Life 120728", JINMO used guitar software "Guitar Rig 5" which runs on MacBook Pro, it was first use in a year and half since his solo show "Burnt Offerings: 5th Sacrifice" on January 10th 2011.
Perhaps because of using Guitar Rig 5, JINMO's performance was increasingly more complex and more delicate, including plentiful
real-time large-scale guitar orchestration than ever, it seemed to be filled with some kind of solemn, sublime light.
After the show, many audience are stupefied in silence for a long time, it seemed that they are still drifting in beautiful afterglow.
"Life 120728", it was exactly the sound world like "The Sea of Fertility".

The recording has done completely with stereo microphone, without any line signals at all.
The track has only fixed the sound quality on the editing but it is exactly raw sound on the show.
No overdubbing on editing, no effect such as samplers on playing.
Every sound had emitted only by a guitar with JINMO's 10 fingers.
