He is also a farmer, and while advocating the genre of "farmer's music," which expands the idea from the relationship between agriculture and music that is dotted throughout human history, he is seeking a role as a chronicler of history. In 2022, he will be performing and recording in South Africa, and is expanding his activities overseas, releasing a beat tape album "yhyk," co-written with guitarist Yutaka Hirasaka, on the British label beatsupply.
