Nomak was born and grew up in nature consisting of mountains, rivers and oceans. His contact with grass, flowers, wood, water, soil and other natural environments cultivated his sensitivity and emotional characteristics. He integrates Japanese style and modern music with his eternal heart of life and will continue his ongoing search for new views and discoveries in everyday life.

 

 

Nomak produces music by virtue of his hearing and touch. He has not been trained in any professional music school; therefore, each piece of music is owing to his innate musical talent; he only cares about whether each emerging melody could arouse sympathy.

 

Which one he belongs to, simple natural talent or dedicated master; of course, NOMAK is absolutely the former.

 

 

He once repeated that he was inspired by “nature’s gift”. Nature rouses his reverence for life and makes it possible for him to display joy and sorrow of life accurately with unpretentious attitude; introverted character is the force of Nomak’s simple music style.

 

As praised by Tower Record in Japan, Nomak’s music is as delicate and exquisite as that of Ryuichi Sakamoto and Joe Hisaishi. In addition, FMusic once wrote such sentence for Nomak’s album: “Suppose that from 2000 until now, it is Nujabes who planted a seed for unique and beautiful Japanese uderground hip hop, launch of CALM- the album released by Nomak in 2007 made it possible for such seed to grow into more beautiful flowers- gorgeous masterpieces”.
