The Sustain Series project continues with its second volume, 24 recycled forms created from old and unused material. Since the release of Volume 1 in November last year, more artists have come together to salvage, repurpose, restore and deconstruct each other’s pieces, or collaborate on a particular idea. What results is a growing variety of approaches and outputs, from minor embellishments to full disfigurement.

Volume 2 moves thematically, as if in four chapters, from the expressive openers, through enchanting natural-sounding pieces, before opening up to more ethereal expanses, and finally darker and more thoughtful ones. As it does, visions emerge of our natural world - its power, its beauty and its vulnerability.

"shinpeki (深碧)" is a color of deeper green which constitutes a part of humid mountain air, called "kusui (空翠)". 

This track is quoted from an album 'shinpeki - a bond for Haco' which is compiled from tracks that stabilo (speaker gain teardrop) and Gallery Six contributed for Haco's album 'Qoosui' as a collaboration work.

special thanks to kirah perle for the lovely vocals+harp on this, and also to matt yarrington for some of the brass bits.

note: this song is, in part, an homage to and also dedicated to the late susumu yokota, who inspired me greatly along the way.

Release notes: 

'This is a collection of songs and sketches from the past decade. 
Aural photographs (some more developed than others), capturing glimpses of emotional realms traveled. 

A while ago I wrote down these words to help me get out of perfectionism: "I don't want to be flawless, I just want to touch people."
I put those words on a note next to my bed. 
I should read them more often.'

released November 13, 2018
