"The Babel"

Opening soon on Oct, 2009.

Introducing Chouchou's sounds lab, "The Babel" which is opening soon on Oct, 2009. We created the process of our sound creations in 3D. "The Babel" is like the core of our music and like the the place where our music comes from.

By touching each box, you hear a little sound of Chouchou. You can mix them anyway you like to create your beautiful music. The boxes are classified into the groups called "elements," and each element has a concept with the specific codes and chord progressions. The tower is divided into levels according to elements.

The music of this video was only made with the sounds from "The Babel." And the video below is a tutorial video for how to play the Babel.

Chouchou Live Video from Sapporo's 1st Anniversary Event

Here's our live video from our last performance at sapporo's 1st anniversary event. The video was shot and edited by tadakuma Koba.


At this show, we used many kinds of image videos with the music, so that the audience played the music and media at the same time to get this new visionary world of Chouchou. The video is pretty long and only spoken in Japanese at this time, but we hope you enjoy the music and atmosphere.


And sorry for my crying at the end of the show. I was explaining about our new piano piece, r.i.p. which arabesque composed for his beloved father who recently passed away from brain tumor. His father taught him piano and the beauty of music.

New Year's Greeting from Chouchou

Happy New Year.


As our new year greetings, we made a very short video with a little music.










dear nobody

In a dream

I was standing in a white room

with an amazingly beautiful dress

and I just kept dancing and twirling

as if that was the only thing I could

all in a drowse







Hope our music will always reverberate in your heart.
