Tokio Hasegawa’s post-Taj Mahal Travellers outfit brings the same patient, environment-responsive approach to two 20-minute pieces recorded outdoors in Japan. Side A accumulates voices, strings, wind into a slow bloom; Side B strips back to whisper-level intimacy at a mountain museum. The sound is unglamorous and site-specific — less mystical pastiche than the actual grain of air and attention in a particular place at a particular time.
