Microscopic Cookbook is the first album I have ever put out as "Gama." it was published in 2017 by the Osaka collective CHILLMOUNTAIN (♥), which distributed the Cassette in Japan. MC is a piece of music that could've been a movie but turned out to be an abstract radio drama. The 8-track tape tells us a semi-continuous Carrollian story with detailed, microscopic sounds. At the time, my addiction was collecting recordings and making these loose "ASMR" beats; that's how the album got its name.

For the 5th anniversary edition, I've added two tracks that were left out from the original tape, plus new, clearer mixes to give a new life to this record. This version is a modest, intimate celebration, a way to get to know each other better. While I work on new music, perhaps these tracks can show both of us some perspective of now & then.

So fasten your headphones! We are about to dive into a rabbit hole.

Microscopic Cookbook (5th Anniversary Edition)

Closest Encounters - 2022 Mix

And go past the forest 
where you can slowly wake up
or you can take your time 
and let the seasons catch up
slip off your shoes 
and feel the earth 
your ears will start to ring
and life will sing.

You've just got to swing past the 
forest 
where colours can blind you 
and everything finds you 
it can drive you insane 

You've got to slow down now
or you'll grow cold.
Leap past the flowers that sleep,
The hours that spring those old 
Shadows confuse you 
and the silence is loud 
your're reaching for the light
your're losing sight 

You've just got to swing past the
forest
where colours can blind you 
and everything finds you 
it can drive you insane

and go past the forest 
where you can slowly wake up
