muque is a four-piece band from Fukuoka formed in May 2022, comprising Asakara(Vo>), Lenon(Ba), takachi(Track make&Dr), and Kenichi(Gt). muque’s song is produced mainly by takachi, who is the band’s drummer, trackmaker, and song arranger, and Asakura, who is in charge of the topline and lyricist. Their most appealing deatures are the contemporaneous tracks by takachi, who prefers not only American and British music, but worldwide music including ASIAN global beats, the poetic lyrics by Asakura, and their melody lines with a Japanese feel. This song creates a unique world through Asakura’s emotional vocalization. The band’s name “muque” combines the French word musique, meaning “music,” and the Japanese word “無垢”(muku), which means “purity”. The band's name expresses the desire to continue producing only the kind of music they want to make, without being influenced by their surroundings.
