So Oishi crafts music that evokes the paradoxical nature of the Earth's lithosphere: a surface serenity belying a churning, vibrant undercurrent. The upcoming "Lithosphere" EP exemplifies this quality, offering four distinct terrains for sonic exploration. 

Our premiere today, the title track "Lithosphere," embodies this dichotomy perfectly. Ethereal whispers hang in the air, like the faint tremors felt beneath the Earth's crust. The eerily beautiful atmosphere is layered over a deep, rumbling groove. Glassy pads shimmer like subterranean crystals, while bass stabs punctuate the soundscape with the percussive force of tectonic shifts. This subtle tension between tranquility and subterranean energy makes "Lithosphere" perfect for those seeking a unique after-hours experience.
The entire "Litosphere" EP arrives on March 8th via Something Happening Somewhere.
