Both warm and cold, and acoustic and electronic, Sakamoto’s palette includes a range of instrumentation: everyday objects, spoken word, mystifying textures and field recordings. Mortality, existentialism, nostalgia and gratitude permeate the album with wistful, thoughtful, foggy fragility. Released in 2017 and built to stand the test of time, Async was Japanese master musician and composer Ryuichi Sakamoto’s first solo album in eight years, following his recovery from throat cancer.
