Mr C, these days

He likes techno-music as well.
He said he wanted to play music for a long time, and he finally started!

A small African xylophone that Ms M gave him when she moved away.
And a few original self-made string instruments.
After that, a used keyboard that C says used to be popular in the ’80s.
Then, at a recycle shop, we found and bought a Taisho koto (it was invented in the Taisho period in Japan; the lady who used to live next door also used to play it).

Every night he sits down at the computer, stares at the screen, and makes something.
In our case, how to manage it on a low budget is also a big problem; but I hope he keeps it up for a long time without feeling stress.

He sometimes makes me listen to his work, and I hope he makes music that’s a little more poppy!
