It is an absolute delight to announce @daigohanada's new LP Satori, which we'll release in March of next year. It's hard not to overstate how special Daigo is as a person and musician ; his care and thoughtfulness shine through every interaction and every note chosen on the piano, synth or organ. He's been writing material for Satori over the last couple years and the collection of 13 pieces is an intimate invitation into his world, infused with hopeful melodies and a soulful vulnerability. We'll be telling you lots more about it over the coming months, and you can discover the album track 'Emi' now right here: https://idol.lnk.to/dh-emi

Big thanks to Andrea Diotallevi for the lovely artwork and to Martyn Heyne for the tasteful master. With such great audiovisual collaborators we've prepared beautiful pressings of the LP in vinyl & CD format - which we'll share with you early in the new year!

Lyrics: You are sunlight and I moon
Joined by the gods of fortune
Midnight and high noon sharing the sky
We have been blessed, you and I

You are here like a mystery
I'm from a world that's so different from all that you are
How in the light of one night did we come so far?

Outside day starts to dawn
Your moon still floats on high
The birds awake
The stars shine too
My hands still shake
I reach for you
And we meet in the sky

You are sunlight and I moon
Joined here
Brightening the sky with the flame of love

Made of
Sunlight
Moonlight
