Yume no Oto · Echoes (夢の音) — Echoes of memory, sounds of a dream

Yume no Oto is the poetic voice of Etsurakami within Katsubō Stories — a quiet echo of dreams, memory, and feelings that could not remain unspoken. Some songs are born between albums — too brief for a full story, yet too powerful to fade away. Here live the melodies that breathe like memories: quiet, fleeting, but never gone. Echoes are what the heart remembers. Yume no Oto — the sound of dreams that never truly fade. Here, I try to hold the days that would otherwise disappear. Fragments from my diary, passing thoughts, quiet wounds, brief moments of beauty — I turn them into music so they do not vanish without leaving a trace. Sometimes I write to remember. Sometimes I sing to let go. And sometimes I release these echoes into the world so they can travel farther than I ever could — carried by air, by time, by listening hearts.

Maybe that is why these songs feel so light and so fragile. They are not only stories. They are pieces of what I lived, what I feared, what I loved, and what I could not keep. When they leave me and become sound, they are no longer mine alone. They move outward. And perhaps, one day, they may return to me differently — like wind returning with a memory I thought I had already lost. 

 

Yume no Oto ist die poetische Stimme von Etsurakami innerhalb von Katsubō Stories — ein leiser Nachklang aus Träumen, Erinnerung und Gefühlen, die nicht unausgesprochen bleiben konnten. Manche Lieder entstehen zwischen zwei Alben — aus Momenten, die zu flüchtig für ganze Geschichten sind, aber zu stark, um zu schweigen. Hier wohnen Songs, die atmen wie Erinnerungen: leise, flüchtig, und doch nie ganz fort. Echoes sind Nachklänge dessen, was das Herz nicht vergisst. Yume no Oto — die Klänge der Träume, die nie ganz vergehen. Hier versuche ich, die Tage festzuhalten, die sonst einfach verschwinden würden. Fragmente aus meinem Tagebuch, vorbeiziehende Gedanken, stille Wunden, kurze Augenblicke von Schönheit — ich verwandle sie in Musik, damit sie nicht spurlos vergehen. Manchmal schreibe ich, um mich zu erinnern. Manchmal singe ich, um loszulassen. Und manchmal gebe ich diese Echos in die Welt hinaus, damit sie weiterreisen können, als ich es selbst je könnte — getragen von Luft, von Zeit und von hörenden Herzen. 

Vielleicht fühlen sich diese Lieder genau deshalb so leicht und zugleich so zerbrechlich an. Sie sind nicht nur Geschichten. Sie sind Teile von dem, was ich erlebt habe, wovor ich Angst hatte, was ich geliebt habe und was ich nicht festhalten konnte. Sobald sie mich verlassen und zu Klang werden, gehören sie nicht mehr nur mir. Sie bewegen sich nach außen. Und vielleicht kehren sie eines Tages anders zu mir zurück — wie Wind, der eine Erinnerung mit sich bringt, von der ich dachte, ich hätte sie längst verloren.
