Ryōkan Taigu was a Japanese poet and calligrapher who lived during the Edo period. A Buddhist monk who lived much of his life as a hermit, Taigu spent most of his time writing poetry, calligraphy, and communing with nature. His poetry is often very simple and inspired by nature.

poetic night

The Mongol Princess is a conceptual EP/soundtrack Mood Exhibit released in July 2017.
moodexhibit.bandcamp.com/album/the-mongol-princess

It is an audio story of a young, beautiful, and kind princess that died tragically by disease at an early age. The music reflected her stages of life with emotion and textures of various ethnic and acoustic instruments. It remains my most passionate musical project.

This EP is a document of her return; in spirit form, as a legend. These tracks retain the same feel as the original, but with a more grandiose and mystical flavor, and mixed minor electronics.

https://moodexhibit.bandcamp.com/album/the-return-of-the-mongol-princess

I had asked fellow electronic artist Belial Pelegrim to collaborate on 2 tracks for this EP. These 2 tracks showcase his brilliant production and vision, fitting perfectly to the mythology of The Princess.
