The second multi-track recording piece by HIDE.

It uses samples of various sounds from the surroundings, such as hitting a trash can that was in the studio.

CRUCIFY MY LOVEX JAPAN

X Japan – Crucify my love [PV]

It’s a simple performance composed only of piano, vocals, and orchestra.

By stripping away anything unnecessary, it highlights the delicacy of each note.

Seeking greater realism, YOSHIKI even placed a microphone near the piano’s pedals.

In fact, the sound of his foot lifting off the pedal at the end of the piece is also recorded.

As the piano flows beautifully and I’m swept away, dissonant chords collide as if to shatter the silence—just like the cycle of joy and sorrow in life.

YOSHIKI understands that all too well.
