****************************************

Nobody thinks it is strange anymore that an artist changes his nom de plume to reflect a new direction; a metamorphosis of his art. As listeners, we must resist the temptation to compare a new expression with previous works but instead, allow the artist the necessary leeway to follow where his muse leads. So it is with Lone Wolf & Friends. There is a departure from his previous work that is his alone to define. We are simply recipients and must let the work wash over us like waves on the beach and be slightly moulded by the force of each one.

By definition, a Lone Wolf has no friends so we are left with the nagging question of why the name has significance. Perhaps Lone Wolf’s friends are his previous artistic incarnations and although he alone created this work, those earlier versions were there to encourage his creative drive. We are never truly loners, are we?

近年では、アーティストが自身の作品の新たな方向性に合わせてアーティスト名を使い分けることが珍しいことではなくなりました。自身のアートの変容に伴い、名前をも変化させるのです。

わたしたちは、音楽を楽しむ立場として、アーティストの過去と現在の作品を比べるのではなく、彼らの新たな作品たちがどの方角へ向かうのかを共にたどるべきではないでしょうか。

ローンウルフ　アンド　フレンズ。一匹狼と仲間たち。彼のこれまでの一人きりでの創作から の変容と分裂。彼だけが定義できる新しい試み。

寄せては返す波がつくりあげた砂浜のように、わたしたちはその変化を受け入れていくのです。

群れることのない一匹狼。一匹狼には仲間はいないはず。なぜアーティストはあえて”一匹狼と仲間たち”と名乗ったのか。

それはもしかすると、その仲間たちは彼の過去の数ある作品そのもの、そしてその過去の作品 たちが揃って彼の創作意欲をかきたててきたのかもしれません。

真の一匹狼など、果たして存
在するのでしょうか？
