As one of the core artists on the Ghostly International label since the early 2000s, Willits has navigated the field of contemporary ambient music with curiosity and ambition, realizing an acclaimed body of work that includes collaborative projects with Ryuichi Sakamoto, Taylor Deupree, and Tycho. This driven-yet-gentle devotion to deep listening led him to the forefront of cutting-edge spatial audio production, a nascent technology at the time of his 2017 album Horizon, now adopted widely across the music industry. Willits operates with the conviction that music can create physical and emotional space for us to slow down and feel the present moment, which is the central intention of his 2022 album Gravity, his most personal and refined to date.Willits began his career with a string of critically acclaimed albums on the 12k label. The minimal sound introduced on those recordings remains at the core of his work: warm guitar tones woven into smooth, harmonic surfaces. Willits made his Ghostly International full-length debut with 2006 landmark Surf Boundaries. He'd expand his vision next through collaboration, working with Ryuichi Sakamoto (2008's Ocean Fire and 2012's Ancient Future), Zach Hill of Death Grips, Taylor Deupree, and, for 2014 LP Opening, with the whole band of Tycho. He also lent a hand in mastering the latter's album Awake, composed the original score for the documentary The Art of Listening, and continues to lead music production and meditation classes in San Francisco.In 2017, Willits put forth Horizon, the first-ever spatial audio release on Ghostly International. The album's innovative 3D mix is mapped to surround listeners and align with sleep patterns, meditation, and other mindful practices. Like Horizon, his 2019 album Sunset utilized spatial recording to encourage listening from within. The five pieces move from warm to cool designed as a soundtrack to embrace the day's end; a collective letting go.Willits composed his latest album, Gravity, during a period of profound change and challenge, processing the impending flux of the world while supporting his mother during her declining health. His natural response was to create music that soothes and facilitates a state of relaxation and clarity. There's a wave-like cadence and flow across the collection; a sense of stability afforded by gravity or the lack thereof, as much a resource as it is an expression. Chihei Hatakeyama / 畠山地平Chihei Hatakeyamaとして2006年にKrankyより、ファーストアル バムをリリース。以後Room40, Home Normal, Own Records, Under The Spire, hibernate, Students Of Decayなど世界中のレ ーベルから現在にいたるまで多数の作品を発表。デジタルとアナ ログの機材を駆使したサウンドが構築する美しいアンビエント・ド ローン作品が特徴。ヨーロッパ、オーストラリア、アメリカ、韓国な ど世界中でツアーを敢行し、To Rococo Rot, Tim Heckerなどと 共演。映画音楽では、松村浩行監督作品『TOCHKA』の環境音を 使用したCD作品「The Secret distance of TOCHKA」を発表。第 86回アカデミー賞<長編ドキュメンタリー部門>にノミネートさ れた篠原有司男を描いたザカリー・ハインザーリング監督作品『 キューティー&ボクサー』(2013年)でも楽曲が使用された。また NHKアニメワールド:プチプチ・アニメ『エんエんニコリ』の音楽を 担当している。ソロ以外では伊達伯欣とエレクトロ・アコースティ ックデュオOpitopeとして、SPEKKから2枚のアルバムをリリース。 佐立努とのユニットLuis Nanookでは電子音と伝統的なフォーク サウンドが混ざり合う音楽世界で2枚のアルバムをリリース。 ASUNA、Hakobune等ともコラヴォレーションアルバムを発表。19:30 OPEN20:00 START自由席・整理番号順_____________________________________<新型 コロナウイルス等感染症予防および拡散防止対策について>• 発熱、咳、くしゃみ、全身痛、下痢などの症状がある場合は、必ずご来場の前に医療機関にご相談いただき、指示に従って指定の医療機関にて受診してください。• 手洗い、うがいの励行をお願いいたします。• お客様入場口に消毒用アルコールの設置を致します。十分な感染対策にご協力ください。• 会場にて万が一体調が悪くなった場合、我慢なさらずに速やかにお近くのスタッフにお声がけください。• 会場には、クロークやロッカーはございません。手荷物は少なめでご来場の上、ご自身での管理をお願いいたします。
