From Kuroioto himself-
"This is the second installment of four Japanese/jazz based productions that I will be doing over a period of four years. And for those of you who have been constantly asking what my name means and if Im Japanese or not, I will now answer your questions. For the record, I am an African American who has taken an interest in the Japanese language. The name KuroiOto is Japanese (In case that wasnt already self explanatory) and it means the black noise or sound. No I did not choose that name because I am myself black, I chose it because a particular family member gave me the idea. That being said, I think we can move on.
This particular album is entitled 7 Days of the Breaks. The reason as to why I picked this title is some what complex. My original project Iro Iro was a representation of the emotions I went through every time I would see a particular color. This project is the same, except it expresses the feelings, emotions and memories I experience during a full week. The reason Breaks is included into the title is because all of the drums in the this album are sampled drum breaks. To add onto that, it also incorporates the Japanese language along with some of the same samples included in Iro Iro. In that sense, the album is an expression of what I go through in a week and the colors that affect my emotions and experiences during that week. I hope that wasnt too confusing. I think thats about it, so the only left to say is.....ENJOY!"
