  • Dawn Valley | TM NETWORK

    The 10th track of the album, Humansystem

    • Artist: TM NETWORK
    • Title: “Dawn Valley”. (Instrumental)
    • Lyricist: n/a
    • Composer: Tetsuya Komuro
    • Released: 1987


    It is the 10th track of the TM NETWORK’s album, Humansystem.

    TM NETWORK is best known for their synthesizer-driven digital music but this instrumental track is played only with an acoustic piano and a flugelhorn. It is a true hidden masterpiece. The piano was played by Tetsuya Komuro, and the flugelhorn was played by the famous American trumpeter Jerry Hey. It was recorded in Los Angeles. Whenever “Dawn Valley” was performed during solo parts at TM NETWORK live concerts or featured in music videos, every performance and arrangement was slightly different, offering a truly one-of-a-kind experience.
