The world of Spiro (named after spironolactone, a prescription drug primarily used as a diuretic), where an earnest and delicate drama of endocrine circulation unfolds within the body. A colorful album that packs in everything the artist loves without regard for genre: swirling kosmische, spiraling synth work reminiscent of Terry Riley and Laurie Spiegel, quintessentially Leaving-style ambient, melodies with a hint of Ethiopian jazz, krautrock rhythms, downtempo and more. Moving between guitar and keys, with woodwinds, cello and marimba added to the mix, the exquisite fusion of acoustic and electronic is utterly captivating. (Original Japanese text by Adachi)
