From the jazzy tones of the opening track ‘Silent Chord’ to the ethereal and atmospheric ‘Epoxy Lamp’, Terada effortlessly captures the essence of ’90s house with his dreamy pads and playful marimba accents. Tracks like ‘Double Spire’ and ‘Bamboo Fighter’ showcase Terada’s ability to blend traditional Japanese elements with deep house grooves, creating a truly unique and captivating sound. The album also features standout tracks like ‘Marimbau’, a sultry electro-house gem, and ‘Runners’, a charming fusion of early YMO influences and Dream 2 Science vibes. Overall, Terada’s first new album in 25 years is a testament to his mastery of the Far East deep house sound and a welcome addition to any electronic music lover’s collection.
