about

Some words from Shoko about the track : "My Japanese roots are also imbedded into this song. I think I was influenced by “Mori No Hito” from Ryuichi Sakamoto’s album “Ongaku Zukan”. I love this Japanese sound of FM bells and woodblock that were made with early CMI samplers in the 80’s.
Also, I used an amazing instrument called the “Tenori-on” made by YAMAHA. I became quite good at it, to a point where I can improvise entire songs on it. The sequenced part in the middle section is composed out of an improvisation on the Tenori-on. I really love it. I’d like to release a whole album fully made with the Teroni-on.
I always was so scared of writing lyrics as it is no easy task, but thankfully I had recently worked with Jean Kluger and Dan Lacksman on their album “YAMASUKI 2.0” which is a sequel to the hit record they had made in the 70’s called Yamasuki. I contributed to the record as Japanese lyricist, composer, singer and flutist. That experience gave me a lot of confidence with my song writing ability as well as recording my own voice.
Later I asked Dan Lacksman to help me produce and mix my album which was a beautiful experience as I was a fan of how he used his legendary Moog System Modular. I later discovered that he along with Marc Moulin had work with Haruomi Hosono and Miharu Koshi on her cover of Telex’ “L’amour Toujours”, I thought that was awesome."
