Kariu Kenji is pure poetry

 

 

This, dear readers, is in my humble opinion a work of genius. I love everything about it: the solemn melancholy of the music, the weirdness of the artist, Kariu Kenji, a sort of anti-popstar, the alienation of the video, the Befremdung, the cinematography.

Never heard of Kariu, but he’s been around for a while, plays or played guitar for a band called “OWKMJ” en his new album Sekai is his third solo-album. It. Is. BEAUtiful, and if you don’t believe me, check it out for yourself. What a gem, pure poetry. If you really put some effort in it, there is so much to discover on the Internet. (PB)
