Yūgen is awareness of the universe that triggers emotional responses too deep and powerful for words. It is a unique japanese phrase and an important concept in traditional Japanese aesthetics. This piece includes field recordings made on location in Nara and Kyoto in 2005 at the moss garden location on the photograph. These were combined with traditional instrument components to create the piece. The sound of the suikinkutsu (water harp) is included.
This is an outstanding collaboration, so far one of my favorite releases this year! BTW, be sure to check out Frank Beissel's own Bandcamp page, and his album Random Abstractions - so far, it's one of the best kept secrets of the year. mysticwolf75
