Great Sea Story

"Dirty Year 2000 Problem" is a piece deeply rooted in reverence for the Japanese alternative rock band "NISENNENMONDAI," yet it transcends mere imitation to become an attempt to touch upon the abyss of existence and consciousness through the fundamental musical act of repetition. The deliberate rejection of mechanical looping in favor of manual repetition underscores a will to capture the inherent subtle differences, the traces of singularity etched by time and the performer's physicality. If one believes that the truth of living music resides precisely within this imperfect reproducibility, then this track can be seen as an acoustic embodiment of the world's constant state of flux, of generation and dissolution, through the act of repetition.

The seemingly monotonous yet perpetually transforming chain of sounds produced by the sustained riff serves as a metaphor for the flow of consciousness, or the minute changes lurking within the repetitive nature of daily life. It evokes Heraclitus's saying, "No man ever steps in the same river twice." Within the seemingly unchanging repetition, new moments constantly arise and pass away. The underlying current of this piece is the performer's inner quest to grasp that ephemerality, that fleeting brilliance.

Furthermore, the process by which this ordered repetitive motion dissolves into a torrent of ambient noise suggests the ambiguity of the boundaries of consciousness, a regression to a primal realm of sensation beyond rational thought. It is a temporary liberation from the noise of anxiety that dominates daily life, an attempt to guide consciousness towards raw sensation, towards the pleasure of pure being.

The title "Dirty Year 2000 Problem" may allude to a specific past event, but at the same time, it could hint at more universal issues such as the uncertainties of modern society or the noise of information overload. The "dirtiness" can be interpreted as the manifestation of imperfect human existence, or the emotions and impulses that cannot be fully grasped by reason alone. This piece is a profound philosophical exploration in sound, aiming to temporarily shut out the noise of reason and anxiety, and through the fundamental power of sound itself, to liberate the listener's consciousness and direct it towards an affirmation of life.
