notes

A young Japanese guitar virtuoso, appeared like the comet in the Rock guitar world, HELLMAN had released the first self-produce CD.

He's known as an accurate hyper speed fast shredder, but we can actually feel his transcendent power of expression for listening the CD.

Even the person who doesn't like instrumental music will listen attentively to those tunes because the melody that he makes is too wonderful. It is not possible to talk about him in a small frame as guitarist. Please listen to this CD as a work of a great melody writer.

About Far East Odyssey (Introduction by Hellman)

01.Intro

I think that there is an expression of emotion that cannot be done if no shredding. I played it with only a guitar.

02.Imaginat Blow

Imaginat Blow is coinage by me, the meaning "Explosion in the brain".
blow off your gloominess from your head.

03.Liberty

This tune is a song of liberty as its name suggests. If you can feel your own liberty from this tune, I am glad.

04.Kids

Hope I keep having innocence like kids indefinitely.

05.Life Of Soldier

This is a conceptual tune.
Personally, I imagined Samurai's life at Warring States Period.
battlefield, feast, rest and battlefield again...

06.Fearless

For me, this tune was a challenge.
fearlessness against the failure make us create a new one.
Please listen to my playing of all my powers in the current state.

07.Japanesque

I played the melody to make me feel something nostalgia as a Japanese.

08.Yoshino River

Yoshino River is the largest river in Tokushima Prefecture.
I made this tiny piece from memories of the riverside where I had often played when I was a child.

    I first heard some of hellman's tracks on youtube - needless to say I liked what I heard! This cd is definitely great for melodic rock fans.

  • Pretty Tasty Stuff

    This is a great cd for instrumental guitar fans. Some songs are better than others, but overall this cd rocks! Great for fans of Petrucci, Satriani, & Shreddars in general!
