Akeruru Nijo - Kamogawa Music / Masahiko Takeda

Dawn Nijo
A stream of water with a hint of liveliness.
Welcome to the city of water.
What is “Kamogawa Music”?
The “Kamogawa Music” is a project to connect Kyoto and the Kamogawa area through music.
The scenery changes as the bridges change, and the landscape of the river changes.
We aim to create music that makes you feel as if you are taking a walk along the river.
