Dynasty
Fallen
Concept albums about the women who shaped — and shattered — empires.
The project
One woman from history per album.
Roughly ten tracks each.
Cinematic visuals.
Symphonic, melodic, weighted.
Every album is a single woman’s arc — usually one history was content to flatten into a footnote, an epithet, or a victim’s name. We restore the agency, the strategy, and the cost. The music is mezzo-soprano-led symphonic rock: heavy distorted guitars, melodic leads, war drums, women’s chorus, and lyrics that take the saga seriously.
The performer is Tanaka Rei — the project’s constant voice and witness. She moves between worlds, century to century, queen to queen. Each album has its own visual language, its own palette, its own historical world. Rei is the thread.
The slap of a king became the death of a kingdom. Patience as the sharpest blade.
