Minima Moralia

by Chihei Hatakeyama

The Japanese sound artist weaves delicate, heavily processed acoustic instruments—particularly vibraphone and acoustic guitar—into gorgeous, glacial drones. The resulting soundscapes are incredibly warm and texturally rich, perfectly fitting the esteemed Kranky label aesthetic. It is a masterpiece of gentle, melancholic electroacoustic ambient music.
