This is a winter classic by THE MAD CAPSULE MARKET’S, pioneers of punk and loud rock who have earned high acclaim overseas.

Featured on their masterpiece PARK, released in October 1994, the song offers a lyrically rich worldview that contrasts with their intense image.

Its waltz-like 3/4 rhythm and singing, melodic bass line are striking, vividly evoking the frozen air of a winter morning, white breath, and misty landscapes.

Its unhurried beat and pleasant melody make it perfect for nighttime relaxation or for quietly immersing yourself in the world of music alone.

Hirai Dai / What Is Here (Lyric Video)
What is hereHirai Dai

A heartbreaking ballad from the November 2020 “12th consecutive release project,” it marks a departure from his usual style by featuring only piano and strings, without ukulele or acoustic guitar.

The orchestral music video also became a hot topic! At 3:41, the song is surprisingly short, making it an easy entry point for first-time listeners of Dai Hirai.

“Koko ni Aru Mono” spans A#2 to B4 overall, with the low notes in the A melody being the key focus.

If you’re not used to low notes, your voice can get muffled and even hard for you to hear, making it tough to sing.

Lift your facial muscles firmly to resonate those lows! Raise your eyebrows and facial muscles as you inhale through your mouth, then, keeping that expression, slowly project your voice right in front of you.

The key is to release a compact “mass” of breath as if pushing it out!
