A drummer and a composer, Shinya Fukumori, after having had released his debut album from ECM back in 2018, is now launching his own music label “nagalu.”
 
For its first new release, Shinya has gathered some of Japan’s top artists to create a soundscape he has long been envisaging far beyond that of ECM, jazz music that is born from and truly unique to Asian culture.
 
Nostalgic yet visionary, “Another Story” evokes a feeling of yearning and tenderness through fifteen of its musical poetries, each speaking ever so softly, inviting listeners on a journey of a new beginning.
