For all those who lost their freedom.

This is the 7th album 'Stories in White' from Anoice, the instrumental band. After the release of their previous album 'The Hidden Forest', they released not only an EP and numerous singles, but also works from the members' solo/side projects; Takahiro Kido, Yuki Murata, Films, Mizu Amane, and Tokyo Ambient Collective, and composed soundtracks for movies and TV drama series. Now the band have finally completed their new masterpiece in the form of a full length album.

This album 'Stories in White' is the final chapter of the trilogy about the modern history of humans, which follows up the band’s third album, 'The Black Rain' which made themselves known to the world through their dark cinematic sound, and fifth album, 'Ghost in the Clocks', which the album itself and each song within the album became the #1 and top 10 most streamed/downloaded instrumental music on Apple Music and iTunes Store in over 20 countries. It could be said that Anoice's culmination of their entire career was built by the beautiful soundscape of the magnificent orchestra-like sound and destructive noise. Of course, like the other two albums, an illustrator, Yoko Shinto took charge of the artworks.

The album consists of beautiful and passionate neo-classical songs played by a piano and string quartet, such as the first lead single 'aria', which Matthew Krivolapov directed its music video and 'lament' and other instrumental rock songs performed by spectacular an orchestral sound, noisy guitar, and dynamic drums such as heard on the second lead single, 'kill lies all', along with 'resonance', and especially 'the rain maker', which consists of over 100 tracks of instruments and samples and captures Anoice's unique sound.

The history has no choice but to hear this album.

I am a father of three beautiful sons. Being father is the most beautiful "job"! Originally I am a trumpetplayer from my 10th, playing light music in several bands. Since three years I'm playing piano, in a classical way. Since my divorce ten years ago I had some issues: the divorce and six years ago Multiple Myeloom (MM). The last "thing" made me jobless. I was a good trafficengineer. Now I found my love in classical pianoplaying. Sometimes/mostly as a therapy. Now the cancer seemed to be stable. In any way I am not afraid of death anymore. Therefor, making music is the best thing to get! I hope my audience loves my music! That's my only goal: to make people happy! Every comment is welcome (except shouting)!!
