Japanese court music of "Gagaku" project DOMBURAKO 1st album "Kemono"

DOMBURAKO by Taro Ishida and OORUTAICHI started in 2021

The first sound source was released as a special analog record edition.

Please take a look at our approach and thoughts on music production.

Japanese court music of "Gagaku" is a kind of traditional music and considered the oldest orchestra in the world.

Together with this "Gagaku", we "DOMBURAKO" have completed an album.

This is a picture book "MUM" published by Hakusensha.

The book is written by Genki Kawamura, a well-known movie producer, novelist, screenwriter, movie director, and picture book author, and illustrated by Yuuki Masuko.

The logo was also produced by our company.

Logo design for SHO PAIN ARTISAN BAKEHOUSE, a wonderful bakery in Nasushiobara, Tochigi.

We had repeated meetings with Sho Hirayama, the store manager,

before he started his shop, and developed the image of the logo.

The logo was designed using paper cut-outs, almost without using a computer.

Yuki Mashiko is in charge of the book binding for art critic Hidetoshi Fuse's book "Traveling through Cave Murals: 40,000 Years of Human Paintings" (Ronsosha).

The book was created not only through design and illustration, but also by using kiri-e (paper cutout) techniques.

This work was created for the "Winnie the Pooh" exhibition held in 2014.

The warmth is visually expressed by using the technique of paper cut-outs.

Animals gather under a large tree to play amayadori.

This work was initially created for exhibition at the main Mitsukoshi store in Nihonbashi.

We feel that this original character has potential for further development and would like to explore ways to actively develop it in the future.

This illustration was featured on clear files and stickers for children distributed at Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum.

Because these goods are given to children who visit Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, a symbol of nuclear tragedy and peace, we felt it was important to use meaningful motifs, so we focused on the olive tree and dove, symbols of peace.

The design was based on the course menu in the mind of Eiji Takahashi, a famous French chef.

In order to realize Mr. Takahashi's vision, we interviewed him, developed a design concept, and tried to express his unique concept visually, so that the message would be conveyed to the viewer.

We also try to convey the content of the dish to the viewer through pictures alone.

We were also conscious of accurately and visually expressing the contents of the dish in a beautiful way.
