New Age dude
by BT Fasmer
Singapore magazine Todayonline.com has an interview with Kitaro entitled simply New Age Dude. Which is an ok title, since he is the Asian New Age Dude. In this interview you get to know things about Kitaro you probably didn’t know.
Although he’s best known as a musician, Kitaro is involved with many spheres outside of music. For instance, he has a fireworks group which performs at festivals in Japan.
“We use the traditional bamboo fireworks,” he said, adding that they carry them like upright bazookas. “It’s very dangerous and my wife and managers have told me not to do that. But I like to do that. It’s a man thing.”
Let’s hope he doesn’t blow up!
Read the interview here. There are 4 nice pictures of Kitaro too.

NEW AGE MUSIC
New Age Music is a wide-ranging music genre which incorporates many other genres including ambient music, chillout music, atmospheric music, world music, jazz, classical and electronic music (amongst others). Originally coined in the 1960's to describe the emerging sounds from the US and around the world, New Age Music is now a widely established and respected musical genre in its own right and has become a musical home to some of the great composers of our time such as Vangelis, Mike Oldfield and Jean Michel Jarre.
