1. 有耶無耶、2. 茫乎、3. 縹渺、 4. 漠然、5. 模糊、6. 曖昧、7. あやふや、8. 朦朧、9. ぼんやり

The titles of all the tracks are Japanese words that are close to the meaning of obscurity.

When we do not define the attributes of an object and see it as it is, there is something that comes into view for the first time.

全ての曲のタイトルは、不明瞭という意味に近い日本語である。

対象の属性を定義せず、それをあるがままに見ると、そこに初めて見えてくる何かがある。

I improvised this piece on Korg Minilogue XD for the first time at Austin's synth salon workshop after a 3-year break from music. I didn't think I would be able to write anything because I had been so out of practice and rusty. Because I wasn't expecting anything and not attached to the outcome, but rather having a beginner's mind, I was in a flow state and let my mind, hands and body connect to Minilogue XD naturally, trusting the next note/chord/move would land where it should be. Here's the piece recorded that experience, unedited, raw as is.
Sometimes you are more ready than you think you are.
