1969

A collaboration with Japanese legend Saori Yuki. Lush, mid-century orchestral pop that reimagines 1969 through a lens of elegant, cross-continental nostalgia.

It's like a lost 1960s Japanese film soundtrack that somehow makes you nostalgic for a place you've never been.

A gentle, sophisticated embrace of the past that feels like a warm memory of a cool evening.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The delicate, wordless vocalizing on Yoake No Scat that feels like a sunrise breaking over a quiet harbor.
The transition into a bossa nova rhythm on track 2 that bridges the gap between Tokyo and Rio.
The hauntingly sparse piano introduction to Is That All There Is? which strips the song of its usual irony.
