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".

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 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.

Following description is JINMO's words in the invitation to the show "Life 120623".

・・・

"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.

・・・
