Hayato Aoki "Guitar Diary"

A long-awaited book for fans who love Hayato Aoki's music.

Hayato Aoki is a musician who plays the guitar and explores his own unique world of music.

This book gently recounts his encounter with the guitar at age 15, his thoughts on music, the origins of his guitar sounds, his album-making process, his unique morning concerts, and his cafe live performances.
At the end of the book, it includes an essay by Teruki Mishina, owner of the general store FALL, titled "Where the Sound Comes From," and a detailed "Discography and Self-Commentary."
"When playing music, what's important is to 'listen' to the sound. To create a musical space, one must first listen carefully." (From "Opening the Window")
