The highly anticipated re-press of haruka nakamura's 2010 masterpiece "twilight," a double-LP deluxe edition featuring 8 previously unreleased tracks recorded during the original sessions, is finally here.
From the label's website:
"Dedicated to that delicately beautiful time between sunset and nightfall."
The pale blue of evening. A breeze from the window. Its melody.
In a tranquil session recorded in a seaside studio, the piano weaves its magic, met and then passed by musicians such as ARAKI shin, akira uchida, April Lee, and Janis Crunch.
At the end of the day. A prayer for what lies beyond. An evening prayer.
Released in the summer of 2010 by Singapore's KITCHEN. LABEL, haruka nakamura's 2nd album "twilight" is a masterpiece. This album, which produced famous songs such as "twilight" and "Music with a View," not only became a representative work of the artist themselves but also a best-seller in KITCHEN. LABEL's history, leading to a re-release with new artwork in 2013. The deluxe edition includes 8 previously unreleased tracks (*) recorded during the original 2010 sessions. The remastering of the original album was handled by Gen Tanabe, a long-time collaborator of haruka nakamura. It comes in a gatefold jacket with liner notes by Toshihiko Terada (Ame to Kyujitsu).
Recorded in a studio overlooking the sea, this work is dedicated to the scene of twilight as the sun slowly sets below the horizon. It is a sonic landscape that gently and carefully expresses the ephemeral and melancholic atmosphere of twilight, with its gradually fading sunlight and accompanying changes in sky color, through delicate sounds and variations in texture. ARAKI shin, akira uchida, saito isao, Rie Nemoto, April Lee, and Janis Crunch participated in the recording.
