Tomo Katsurada & Jonny Nash, gifted players based in the Netherlands who stay busy with solo work and all manner of collaborations. Centered on two guitars entwining like wind, this is the opening chapter of a musical dialogue nurtured over roughly a year of playing live together. Deeply delayed fingerpicking layers up until you can't tell whose notes are whose, and into that seamless exchange they weave synthesizers and vocals shared between them: ambient acid folk. The abstract melodies stay beautiful without ever turning saccharine — a refreshing guitar record cloaked in dreaminess and wide-open space. Pure bliss. (Original Japanese text by Adachi)
