Currently, Yamazaki is working on his album Katsu – a poignant reflection of his childhood – alongside the release of his single «Unfolded.»
Now, Yamazaki presents his song ”Hanei.” The title of the song means ”prosperity,” and the track explores the powerful idea of breaking free from self-imposed limitations to pursue true prosperity rather than chasing false ideals. With its blend of Japanese folktronica, electric guitars, and ambient soundscapes, ”Hanei” is a deeply introspective journey. The song’s dreamlike inspiration features vivid imagery of a futuristic world, where the spiritual symbol of a wolf, representing change and forgotten wisdom, walks through a chaotic city. Stay Tuned!
