Lullatone – A Toy Train On Its Track
Tags
Biography
Nagoya, Japan
Lullatone’s founder was Shawn James Seymour, a native of Louisville, Kentucky. Its other principle member is Japanese native Yoshimi Tomida (Tomida Yoshimi, in traditional Japanese name order). Seymour began musical experimentation during his high school years in the late-1990s, using keyboards and cassette tape recorders. He and Tomida met while both were attending Bellarmine University; she as an exchange student from Japan. They soon became romantically involved and when Tomida’s visa was due to expire, Seymour decided to return with her to Japan. In the small apartment they shared in Japan, Seymour began composing music late at night while Tomida slept. So as not to disturb her, the songs he created were lullabies. This was the origin of the name “Lullatone”, which is also a reference to Raymond Scott’s 1963 record “Soothing Sounds for Baby”. Seymour and Tomida married in 2005.

yeah, I prefer the older stuff too. but newer is also nice. though I don't like the bedtime beat album at all.

I wish they went back to their ambient sound circa 2003-2006. That had so much more substance than their latest acoustic twee offerings to me. Plays Pajama Pop Pour Vous is still one of my favourite electronic music albums.

Their story sounds like a romantic chick flick. The music is nice, though.

I use 'wake up wake up' as my alarm clock and it is the great possible way to start the morning. It is actually specifically designed for all the stages of waking up..Ah lullatone you are so magical.

I know that their albums can be technically free, but if you haven't payed for any of their albums you should be ashamed of yourself.

Their song titles are reminiscent of memories we all share in one form or another, while their music is light-hearted. It's like the best parts of childhood all over again. Simple, interesting, soft, beauty.
