土井本人が「正式なファーストアルバム」と位置付ける今作『The Illuminated Nightingale』は、夜の幕開けから夜明け前までの流れを描いた、全編「夜」をテーマにした作品です。スウィンギーなポップソング、柔らかな電子音と打ち込みのリズムのエレクトロポップ、そして厳かなワルツにシンプルな弾き語りまで、それぞれに多彩な表情を見せる楽曲からは、アレンジャーとしてもメロディメーカーとしても非凡な才能を強く感じさせ、淡く中性的なハイトーン・ボイスで歌う、哀しみや孤独、不安、歓喜、安らぎなど、あらゆる感情の光と闇が入り交じる詞世界は、土井の存在をますます個性的なものにしています。

極上のメロディにのせて歌われる、陰と陽の術で紡いだ、厳しくも美しき「夜」の物語。土井玄臣『The Illuminated Nightingale』を、どうぞご堪能ください。


“The Illuminated Nightingale” is an album based on the concept of “night”, portraying an entire evening from dusk to dawn. Each track reveals many faces from swingy pop tunes, electro-pop scattered with soft electro sounds and beats, solemn waltzes to simple song. This colorful collection of music is a strong reflection of the artist’s extraordinary talents as an arranger and melody maker. Added to that are the sorrow, solitude, anxiety, joy, and peace expressed through his delicate and neutral high-tone voice combined with a lyrical world of light and darkness which elevates Motoomi Doi’s unique presence to one of a whole new level.

Melodies of rare beauty carry a trying but beautiful story of “night” woven by darkness and light. Enjoy “The Illuminated Nightingale” by Motoomi Doi.
