The Friendly Child was created by Tomoko Matsumoto (aka DTT and part of Clinker) for this series of impro project starting in September 2008.

"Play notes from what you feel, that simplicity creates harmony and melody.
It might be bit off sometimes, but beautiful. However, it's like a life we are living. I create music from life.
That's what The Friendly Child is about."

This album is also deeply influenced by her childhood of trained as a classic piano player.

She said "I liked playing that piano, cos each key has a feeling. Whenever I hit a key. I had always a different feeling. Sometimes I got annoyed, it made me happy. But it's like a best friend. I used not to be very good at showing my emotions to other people. So my piano was a place I was able to do so. When I played a piano score. I used to draw a picture, imagining a story for the music I was playing. So when I remembered those scores, I put those drawings in front of me and played the songs. It was quite a mad idea, but it worked. I could feel it. I could feel the story behind the music. So my childhood was spent wandering alone by myself quite a lot, as well as well behaving like a child with others, trying to be fair to everyone that I was thinking about up to the age of 15. I was a quite a strange girl to others, I guess"

So this is a part of the story of her life.
