Koyomi

by Luis Miehlich

Travis Mida This whole album is great, but December 02 and January 01 are the main reason I bought the album. I love the soundscapes and instrumentals in December 02, and it makes me nostalgic of at least 2 video games I've played in my life which make me imagine I'm deep into an adventure.

January 01 is so light and peaceful, it makes me want to walk or longboard around my favorite nature preserve on a spring morning (the selfish part of me wishes the song was a tiny bit longer). Favorite track: December 02.

Matt Taking a chance on this album. Let's see where it goes~

Ashot Danielyan This is really great album. Very peaceful and relaxing. And I can hear that it's created with love. Wonderful ambient!

In late 2017, I dusted off my hardware setup and started making a few pieces with it again (now released with last year's "winter collection"), which was a lot of fun and made me want to try making a full length project with it.

During my other projects throughout the year, I started recording these pieces, first rather aimlessly, later with more thoughts about concept. They're all live-sessions, usually made in one sitting and one take, mostly hard to replicate. My methods and approaches changed quite a bit over time, the first pieces were recorded to a Zoom R16, the second half through a hardware mixer onto a single track in Ableton.
Some pieces have some overdubs, some don't; some are purely electronic, others feature some guitar or other instruments.

All of them are very raw and I was torn whether I should actually release this for quite a while, it has a lot of rough edges: there's clipping, bad soloing and the form feels incomplete with some months missing. But all of these points make this very electronic album human in a way, something I often try to find in electronic music anyway. I can't say I'm completely content putting out music that isn't always as good as it could be, but this humanity still somewhat appeals to me.
Thank you for listening!
