T-cophony

T-cophony (Official Biography by R.Yeco) Since he was quite young his parents led him to listen various kinds of music, such as hard rock, heavy metal, classic, electric music and traditional music etc. In addition to this, they took him to many music concerts. When he was six, he started going to drum lessons near their house and kept having the lessons for about six years. However, one day the class had moved to somewhere else, so he ended up quitting. He was engaged in drawing pictures after for a while when he was 14 years old, and one day he found a little guitar which was given as a present by his dad a long time ago behind a chest and he then started playing it. At that time, his parents led him to listen to pops and hard rock music from the 60’s to 80’s. On the other hand, he preferred to listen to alternative rock and electronica / ambient and tried to play those songs everyday by copying them simply by watching them. His guitar technique was almost completed by the time he entered high school. The audio sources which he created at that time are available to listen to on his public website or his first independent album. He talked about why he started focusing on acoustic guitar ? which he now plays - at that time. The reason was because the electric guitar’s circuit always broke down and he got sick of fixing it. As a result, he found something new about the possibility of the way of expression with the acoustic guitar which was different to the electric guitar, and he really started songwriting focusing on this. He revealed that he was suffering from a mental illness on his website. So he announced ‘A person in the water’, in which he expressed the side effects of the sleeping pills and tranquilizer medication by using the music and movies. Since 2005, he made another artists name by putting his real name’s initials and a English word which means ‘Cacophony’ together and converted it to a coined word. So then he started releasing many of his musical compositions which he’d saved up by that time on the Internet. He told about the reason why he liked focusing on releasing his music works as below. “I’ve been controlling my mental illness well by listening to my own music for reminding myself of various memories. I can transform the present to some different time and place from where I am now. When I listen to my music, I can be in a different place. Because all the musical works were written only for me, I didn’t mean to release them to the public. But I realized that if I released the albums, my music would remain in the world forever and I can share my emotion with a lot of people in the world. Now I feel it is quite stimulating. I found that benefit isn’t always about money. ”
