Album Notes & Community Reviews

Commissioned to evoke the leisurely luxury of a South Pacific resort, this gorgeous instrumental collaboration brings together three titans of Japanese music. 'Pacific' pioneers the breezy, profoundly soothing aesthetics of early City Pop, utilizing remarkably warm, aquatic synthesizers and deeply tropical easy-listening exotica to paint a flawlessly peaceful summer dreamscape.
