Obscurity

Here is my isolated guitar solo track with full orchestra for my title track "The Wheel."
The Wheel is a concept song spanning over 20 minutes long, which I wrote in 2017/2018 and recorded in 2019. I uploaded it to my SoundCloud back in early 2020. Here are the last 4 minutes of the song. The song itself is a finale to an album idea that I had, and this guitar solo acts as the grand finale movement. The Wheel was written, recorded and arranged by Louis Taverna

「屋上にあなたを呼んで、虹を見ながら、一緒に踊りたかったの。」
・・という曲です。
即興ギターを組み合わせて無理やりに曲にしました(^^;)
シンセも適度に入れました。
曲の終わり方が気持ち悪い。

曲作りのスピード、UaaaaaaaaaP!

"I wanted to meet you on the roof and dance with you while watching the rainbow."
It's a song called ...
I forcibly made a song by combining improvisational guitars (^^;)
I also put in a moderate amount of synths. The way it ends is unpleasant.

Songwriting speed, UaaaaaaaaaP!

■歌詞
待ち合わせね屋上で
わたしの手紙　読んだでしょう？
雨がやんで虹が出ていたら
わたしと踊りましょうね

あなた　いない　屋上に
私の心　読んだでしょう？
雨がやんで虹が出ているわ
一人で踊るわ　わたし

■Lyrics (Translated by Goooogle)
Meet me on the roof
You read my letter, didn't you?
If the rain stopped and a rainbow appeared
Let's dance with me

You are not on the roof
My heart, you surely read it, right?
The rain has stopped and a rainbow is coming out
I'm dancing alone

Naissance

At the heart of this music lies the steel pan — an instrument born in Republic of Trinidad and Tobago in the early 20th century.

During the colonial era, African drumming was banned under British rule, out of fear that rhythms could unify enslaved and marginalized communities. Yet, music could not be silenced.

People turned to bamboo sticks, metal containers, and eventually oil drums, transforming restrictions into invention.
From this resilience emerged the steel pan, the first acoustic instrument created in the 20th century.

The word Creole itself speaks of mixture and convergence: in Republic of Trinidad and Tobago it refers to Creole languages shaped by African, European, and Indigenous influences, and more broadly it names cultures formed where worlds collide.

Reflecting this spirit, Creole weaves the luminous timbre of the steel pan with tribal rhythmic currents, embodying hybridity, memory, and the unbroken force of music.
