Doi,Motoomi Illuminated Nightingale CD

2013 release from the Osaka-based artist. The Illuminated Nightingale is an album based on the concept of "night", portraying an entire evening from dusk to dawn. Each track reveals many faces from swingy pop tunes, electro-pop scattered with soft electro sounds and beats, solemn waltzes to simple song. This colorful collection of music is a strong reflection of the artist's extraordinary talents as an arranger and melody maker. Added to that are the sorrow, solitude, anxiety, joy, and peace expressed through his delicate and neutral high-tone voice combined with a lyrical world of light and darkness which elevates Doi's unique presence to one of a whole new level.
