Jun Miyake – The Silence Ahead
(Japan)
Music and lyrics by Jun Miyake
PlayUp preview - listen to Jun Miyake:
Jun Miyake on his PlayUp song: The song is about a young person who plays a new game. Everything is exciting and dangerous – just like within a new love. Japanese artist / composer who has worked with artists like Philippe Decoufle, Pina Bausch, Bob Wilson, Arto Lindsay, Hal Willner, Oliver Stone. He has released 12 albums.
“My first football experience was at Gym class in Junior-High. I had no idea what kind of game it was. Because I was so much into music then. Thrown into a game without even knowing the rules. Such a mess! This song is about fear and courage, about an innocent boy who is about to face unknown enemies to fight against. Perhaps like nervousness when you begin to love someone.”
