The chance to slow down and take stock can be a welcome one. Hiro Amamiya certainly isn’t alone in feeling like life’s been on pause, but the Teleman drummer’s second solo EP Animal Emotions comes during a rare break after eight years, three albums and numerous globe-trotting tours. Now comes time to reflect.
Hiro explains: "As the song title says this is a song for Autumn which is my favourite season. Autumn makes me feel nostalgic and melancholic somehow and I like those feelings. Spring is too pretty and Summer is too happy - I feel Autumn represents myself perfectly. I find a bit of sadness or darkness makes music more beautiful, maybe it’s because it’s imperfect or fragile."
