Quagmire Moon is about the moon getting annoyed with smoke from the chimney which is also making it feel a bit strange. It's got Japanese bon dance rhythm and has taken some lyrics from a traditional Japanese song to recreate a danceable groove.

Yama Warashi is formed by London -based Japanese artist Yoshino Shigihara. Her music has a dreamy evocative sound with a shadow of moon cake, inspired by Japanese folk dance music, Bon Odori(盆踊り), free jazz and African music with a slice of electric psychedelia. Accompanied by saxophone, guitar and bass, Yoshino plays keyboard, percussions and sings songs in her mother tongue about mycelium, nuclear power and broken O.
 
Yama Warashi (山童) means a small child-like spirit which lives in the mountains.
