Shimmering, warm, and pastoral ambience inspired by the mountainous resort town Minakami.

“Elated, majestic drone music, like if you took seconds from a symphony and stretched them out over 8 minutes.”
-Aaron Stein-Chester, Editor at Earbits

Some history:

“I received the demos for this album well over a year ago, just as our label went into an unplanned 1.5 year hibernation. I've played this EP dozens of times since then, and I've come to feel it's a true masterpiece—fantastic "replay value." Only the last track never seemed to fit in. I brought this concern back to Kei a few months ago and he agreed—in fact this track had been pulled from an entirely separate session. He created a new ending track, and wanted to name it after our label—Stereoscenic. Not only does this track fit perfectly, but it's become my favorite track altogether. I hope you enjoy this fantastic work.”

— Andrew J Klimek
