about

ユートピアのその先へ。魔法仕掛けの電子音楽家Serphが、日々繰り返す音楽的実験の末に辿り着いた新地平、ユートピアのその先の景色を描く、4枚目のフルアルバム『el esperanka』。

ジャズ／テクノ／クラシック／映画音楽／プログレなど、多彩な音楽的要素を取り込み、美しいメロディーやハーモニーと共に、一曲の中で有機的に次々と展開していく。もはやSerph節とも言える、オリジナリティ溢れるそのスタイルは、今作において洗練を極め、童話めいたドリーミーな世界観は、より奥深く幻想的に。結果、今作は、Serphのより変則的な、未知だった側面もかいま見える、これまで以上に自由で、光の量が増した、ポジティブな１枚となりました。

アルバム・タイトルである『el esperanka（エル・エスペランカ）』は、スペイン語で希望を意味する「esperanca（エスペランサ）」からの造語です。ユートピアのその先で、Serphが奏でる「新たな希望」の物語。アルバム『el esperanka』は、リスナーのイマジネーションを掻き立てる、夢見る人へのサウンドトラックです。

Beyond utopia. Serph, the wizard of electronic music has finally completed his 4th album, one that paints the scenery beyond utopia, a new horizon discovered at the end of daily musical experimentation.

A spectrum of musical elements including jazz, techno, classical, film music, and progressive rock are incorporated together to create beautiful melody and harmony; unfolding organically one after the other in a single track. This original style which has become Serph’s signature style shines brighter in this album, bringing greater depth and fantasy to his dreamy fairytale world. The result is an ever-free, bright and positive album which gives audiences a small peek into yet another side of Serph’ untypical world waiting to be discovered.

The album title, “el esperanka” is a term coined from “esperanca”, Spanish for “hope.” This is Serph’s story of “new hope” beyond utopia. Album “el esperanka” is a soundtrack that stirs imaginations, an album dedicated to the dreamers in this world.

I heard him on somaFM : Cliqhop IDM before 2007, then found Music Video for 'When I Get My Ear', was very smooth video with music, edited by himself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NpvHUW_vY0 (Perhaps video director name on the end credits, so I was wrong about that for long time, but it by his versatile DIY senses xD) I still repeating, always fresh :D SomaFM.com listener

Hiroshi Yoshimura would be so proud of what IAR+P has done to evolve his sound. I am so happy to have found them. Happy robot music, sad robot music, contemplative, emotive, and very hopeful. Many thanks to the artists. ForcesUndivided
