東京バイト - Tokyo Bytes

by World Listener

supported by

Deferent Golgi We don't often hear field recordings from around the city, but the city can provide many transcendent sonic experiences. This is a warm, almost nostalgic, collection, drifting unhurriedly from train car to park to sports venue to temple, inviting slowness, reflection, and gratitude. Favorite track: 世田谷線の中 - Inside Setagaya Line.
