Omsenkyo project

HOW WE BECAME A GROUP
In 2016, we Omsenkyo (Satomi and Wataru) met Arindam at the yoga festival in Okinawa. At that night, we had a little session in the room we shared, then all three felt WOW!. The music we played was really a something!, it seemed like a perfect trinity. Melody, rhythm and the sound of drone, which is the same form of Indian classical music. But! different!. We have Okinawa’s folklore and Japanese sound therapy combined with Indian percussion all in one!.

WHY WE PLAY
We will bring peace to your mind.
When you live in peace, the world is in peace immediately!.

WHAT WE DO
It is a combination of entertainment and sound treatment.
We provide positive vibes, and sweep away negative vibes powerfully.
Just have a fun with the music, then you’ll feel better.
Make miracles as usual sort of things.

Started the career as a singing-ring player in 2005.

Her powerful sound changes the history of the sound of drones from just a continuous accompaniment into the experience of the vibration of bliss.

Wataru Kousaka
Musician / Stereo sanshin improviser / e-sarod player
Started to play wadaiko (Japanese drum) and Okinawan sanshin, guitar and bass guitar. Also started composing and performing at teenage. His multi cultural family background caused his style of mixed ethnic music.

[with electronic musical devices]
Uses loop pedal to make the refrain of several musical instruments such as the syllabic sound of sanshin and the melismatic melodies of e-sarod (modified Indian sarod with extra low sound).
