American ambient labelMystery CirclesThis work, which will be released by photographerTakeshita TomohiroThis original soundtrack was written as a result of Tatsumi being in charge of the music for the photo exhibition “Across the United States,” which is a collection of works taken by Tatsumi who traveled alone across the United States. The soundtrack uses environmental sounds recorded on an IC recorder during the road trip, and is said to be a work that allows the listener to experience the changes in mental state and thoughts of a person traveling in a foreign country.
Percussion is provided by Kazuhiko Masumura, a drummer/percussionist who also plays in the unit GONNO × MASUMURA with house/techno artist GONNO and released his first solo work “Candombou” last year, while mixing and mastering is handled by Takuro Okada. The album will be released in two formats: digital and cassette tape. The cassette tape will be produced in a domestic and overseas version, and the domestic version will be limited to 150 copies, and will be sold in advance at the exhibition venue of “Tomohiro Takeshita Photo Exhibition “Across the United States”” which will start on Tuesday, September 3rd. Information on stores that sell the cassette will be announced on the artist’s SNS from time to time.
In addition, a playlist of songs influenced by this work, “Influenced at Us,” will be available on Apple Music and Spotify from the release date.
