JUN MIYAKE

Discovered by the Japanese legend Terumasa Hino, Jun Miyake started his career as a Jazz trumpeter, graduating Berklee College of Music. As he came back to Tokyo, he became an influential artist, as well as a successful composer. Miyake has closely worked with Pina Bausch, Wim Wenders, Robert Wilson, Oliver Stone, Jean-Paul Goude, Philippe Decoufle, and others, and has collaborated with artists such as Hal Willner, Arto Lindsay, Arthur H, Vinicius Cantuaria, and many others. With his ability to blend the most seemingly disparate elements of music, he has achieved much respect throughout the world. Miyake's album "Stolen from strangers" was selected as "best album of the year" for numerous European music magazines, and the Grand Prix for the German Record Critics Award 2008. He was selected as "man of 2009" by Galerie Lafatette homme. Jun Miyake's music comes light-footed as the bossa nova, accessible as sophisticated pop and refined and versatile as lively jazz. Lost Memory Theatre is an ever-changing constellation of sound images and scenes, bossa nova and reggae, Kurt Weill and Nino Rota, chanson and symphony, jazz and improvisation, rock and folk: the album is a must-hear from start to finish, mixing all styles and genres to create a hybrid of musical genius. “You enter this space for the first time and you’re already addicted to it…” (Wim Wenders.)
