Our creative force behind dogstar, Masayo, listens to music for the melody. Her first language is Japanese and understanding the lyrics of english songs can be tricky. For her, music evokes emotion through its sound rather than through its words.
Music is an universal language we all relate to. People are moved and influenced by it in many ways. We breath music, the sounds inspire, provoke thoughts; it rouses emotions, settles nerves, relates to feelings felt by many. We laugh, we cry, we dance, we reflect, we create, we are stirred by its feeling. Nick Cave’s dark and brooding sounds and Vast’s industrial and drum-driven, heavy bass were a couple of the influences behind dogstar’s winter 09 collection.
Like music, dogstar appeals to and is enjoyed by a broad range of people, of all shapes, sizes and ages. We like everyone to be able to speak its creative language.
