■ The origin of her music was a song for a sleepless friend
The musical activities of healing J-POP artist ojo close began with a single lullaby she sang for a close friend during a 'sleepless night.' There was no special announcement or plan; her singing, posted on social media simply out of care for the other person, resonated with people who also felt anxiety or fatigue, drawing responses such as 'I could sleep with this voice' or 'It calmed my mind.'
Following these reactions, she will officially start as a singer in 2026 to deliver 'songs that allow anyone to gently close their eyes (close) and stay near (close) to them.' The name 'close' in the artist's name reflects both her wish to invite people to a peaceful sleep and her desire not to let them be alone on a lonely night.
In ojo close's music, a consistent attitude of 'accompanying the listener's time' flows rather than self-assertion. The EP 'Lullaby' released this time is the very reason why she continues to sing, a work that condenses her original thought of wanting to gently accompany someone's night.
■ An artist whose perspective as a photographer is reflected
In her music, which evokes scenes of nature, her sensitivity as a photographer who has captured light and air is alive. In this EP, producer Fog Lamps supervised the entire process from music production to mastering. Through dialogue, he sound-imaged the 'intervals' and 'negative space' that she captures in photographs in detail, finishing the work as if completing a single photograph.
The sound carefully scoops up honest emotional movements and fragments of daily life. The unadorned words and soft melodies gently and deeply permeate the quiet place in the listener's heart.
