• SHIN KOKAWA 「anima」wit...
Solo project of ex.jizue's drummer SHIN KOKAWA.
Interference of the others is eliminated. Sought only the pure self-expression.
The drummer reached the primitive overtones of live instrument that go the age of technology, and expression that isn’t restricted by ensemble.
There are only wood, skin, metal and the body of the drummer.
The emotion of the moment is put into the improvisation.
A solo play of the percussion that reflects oneself in the moment.
Shin formed an instrument band together with his old friends, named jizue, in 2003.
jizue made a major debut from Victor Entertainment in 2017, while they have released 7 albums.
Performed at large festivals around the world, including "FUJI ROCKFESTIVAL", "GREENROOM FESTIVAL", "Asagiri JAM" and "Tokyo JAZZ".
Traveled around their tours not only in Japan but also overseas such as in Canada, Indonesia, China and Taiwan.
Solo project by a drummer, Shin Kokawa. (Ex member of jizue)
His musicality and artistry are inspired by Japanese Zen, whose value is simplified beauties of nature, while he is exploring new expressions of drums. At the same time, he is always fascinated to free jazz, spiritual jazz, folk music, environmental music, hardcore etc, as a musician. He finally attains to a new vision to create beautiful music, which has not existed yet, by a minimal material of drum, which is wood, bark, metal, and his body, while he succeeded to install and mix the value of beauties of nature and his favorite music with his natural talent. His emotion that reflects the moment of his performance is drawn into an improvisation with primitive and beautiful sound of the acoustic instruments.
He started solo activities in 2015. Shortly after the activities started, he supported 4HERO and DEGO performance in Kyoto who are current legends in London club jazz.
He also participated in ROBSMITH's JAPAN tour, which continues to lead British music alongside MASSIVE ATTACK.
With Japanese players, he joined Tokyo and Kyoto performances along with DJ DYE from THA BLUE HERB and zettaimu from KURANAKA a.k.a.1945
Subsequently, he is exploring new expression and play styles collaborating with various artists, such as ballet dancers, belly dancers, calligraphers, live painters, space artists, and yoga teachers.
In 2020, he embarked on a Southeast Asian solo tour.
