CINQ - SKETCH (CD)

This is the first album by cinq which is the solo project of Kyoto University Graduate School graduate doctor of science Masaaki Takemura. He is also a member of snoweffect, the main unit on the ryoondo-tealabel which has the concept of "ambient with tea". This album titled "sketch" is a beautiful piece showing the endless span of his delicate soul. Beautiful arpeggio tones come out of the fog and funny steps made in sine-waves. His music is kind to both ear and heart and shares the same softness of Erik Satie and Philip Glass and is full of melancholy romanticism. (label info)
