Track List

"Fading" is a five-track cassette album recorded, mixed, and mastered entirely by the artist alone using a 12-string acoustic guitar and a Weissenborn guitar. A beautiful crystallization of fingerpicking that invites you to savor the resonance of the strings, the wavering caused by the slide, and countless overtones. A tapestry of sound where faint phantoms emerge and the contours of reality gradually fade. With its fresh recording that captures even the most delicate nuances of the strings, this gem of an album is sure to awaken your senses. (Original Japanese text by Adachi)
