SCHUMPETE NAKABOU

Schumpete Nakabou

I write music whimsically—heavy metal, rock, surf sounds, jazz, cinematic styles. Everything is programmed; everything is an experiment. Structures and aesthetics explode on the spot.
The Tiger Jeet Singh of the music world—crossing genres while blowing logic to bits.

As a beginner in Buddhism, I listen closely to the law of causality. As a Lacanian, I twist the structure of desire. With a drop of sociological perspective, I peek behind “meaning.”
What I blend into the sound isn’t just fragments of thought, but something beneath emotion, an unspoken current of the heart, pulsing underneath.

I compose soundtracks for movies that don’t exist, weaving fragments of imaginary stories.
Repeat the same harmony? Break the rules of voice leading? If dissonance sounds beautiful, then let it explode.

My hobby is “always remaining uncategorized.”

Real name: Shunpeita Nakabou.
Leader of the music unit “VISIONS.”

I also write.
I explore the thoughts behind music, and the distance between sound and words, through essays and reflections.
Writing is an extension of composing, and sometimes a means of resistance.

I don’t seek fame. I want to become someone who can acknowledge themselves.
Through both music and words, I keep shifting “meaning.”
