about

This song was originally composed by Hibiki Ichikawa, Tina & Youka’s shamisen teacher. We loved the song so much, we decided to create a full band arrangement of it, which features an experimental, cinematic bridge section we added for our own flair. Youka is also a professional violinist, so she created the string arrangements for this recording, enlisting Samira Aly on cello to fill out the arrangement. Last but certainly not least, we were joined by the incredible qanun soloist Shingo Masuda, who absolutely nailed the recording session and seemed to inexplicably know the whole song with all its complex changes, despite having never played with us before. This song was the hardest to mix due to the complex instrumental arrangement, but thanks to our fantastic mixing engineer Wouter Rentema, each instrument in this recording shines on its own.
