🌸 Nostalgia | Key2Nostalgia 🌸

Music student and Anime fan from childhood, Japanese music fan since teenhood. I picked up guitar as an adult to bring my band dream to life and started the Chromatic Dreamers Band Project in June 2021, followed by this blog in October 2021. Having struggled to find useful content on Japanese music, I was eager to fill that gap. In Summer 2022, we achieved our goals of playing at an anime convention. In Summer 2023, the singer and I reunited as "Natsukashi Kumo" and performed at a festival! During this time, I dug deep into Japanese Music Theory as I struggled to understand why and how Japanese music sounded the way it did, and have shared all I learned on this blog. While I grew up Christian, I was raised in a legalistic church, so only around New Years 2023 did I come to believe the true gospel and was born again. I received FL Studio as a gift and released my first song "Be Courageous" (inspired by Joshua 1:9) a week after. I spent most of 2023 studying the bible, and indulging in Christian content. I told God that after the festival, I wouldn't play guitar again unless for him, and in January 2024, I was recruited to play at a church plant. I have since changed direction on my blog to focus on Japanese Christian Music, and Christian themes in Anime.
