Resonance
"Japanese pianist Yumiko Morioka initially released Resonance, her first and only solo recording, on Akira Ito's Green & Water imprint in 1987. Whilst by no means a commercial failure, the album was mostly found in the background of Japanese TV documentaries, maternity clinics and healing shops before drifting into relative obscurity.By 1994, Morioka had relocated to America and her solo music career had given way to the joys of starting a family and her new life in California. It was, and still…

These pieces are extremely soothing, heavenly, loving, and peaceful, and they capture the energies of love on a galactic scale.

The musical content provides a colorful ethno-phonographic experience including a large corpus of micro-sounds taken from rituals of 'everyday life' among Eastern Thai regions and secular communities.

The Unkept Secrets
"This is another perfect Nimh album, a world of magnetic, somnanbulic, fuzzing, moving electronic textures and drones covered by glacially melancholic guitar parts. These recent years there have been many descent projects published under the dark ambient - prog electronic label, but The Unkept Secrets is exceptional, reaching a degree of composition and complexity rarely obtained in this specific genre. Meridians opens the album with an intimate, colourful, extatic droning minimalist guitar comp…
Subterranean Thoughts
"Subterranean Thoughts is an extremely intriguing experimental electronic album that finds the perfect equation between aesthetic of enlightenment and the production of cinematic sound textures.

Rewind is a dreamy-like, detached piece that dissolves tonal violinist stringed orchestration into a vast electronic abstract path (an obvious contrast between decadent in…
The Impossible Days

Lost signals features a minimal, obsessional synthesised micro-signal, endlessely repeated. It is progressively covered by moving, spherical electronic sequences, a cascade of natural …
Calypso
Calypso’ finds ambient original Gigi Masin at his most gassed and sunlit - even dicing with drums - in a typically lush album inspired by a mythical Greek island. “The LP is inspired by the mythical Greek island of Ogygia and its alleged real life counterpart Gavdos – also known unofficially as Calypso – a place of extreme beauty, which upon visiting had a profound effect on the musician.
“Gavdos gives you profound sensations in every corner, as here you can find enchantment, mystery, the getti…
Dead Piano
**200 copies, tip!** The idea of Dead Piano was born from the intention of using the sound of the piano in a different context, compared to what we are used to listen. Can this instrument become a different 'sound generator'? Beyond what has been done in the past, when many composers used a 'prepared piano', where they placed microphones near the strings, or pieces of metal that generated particular sounds resonating with the strings, the most recent technology offers many tools to manipulate th…

He’s back with a new album under a new name, Star Searchers, a futuristic eco-friendly record. It’s life on earth as you never heard it.
