Product Description
Released September 2026. Twenty third studio album and first new album for seven years from the legendary, pioneering musician enjoying a new period of acclaim around the world. This is the Japanese version released in Japan. Says Hosono "I am now 78 years old, but from here on, I feel a growing curiosity toward the unknown music that my new self will create, while also embracing the music of my former self as if I now carry two musical worlds within me." Across arrangements that span psych-folk and avant-pop, Hosono contemplates the concept of a maternal force that envelops the Earth, "humanity’s understanding of the unconditional love possessed by those who give us life. Songs tap into a collective current, engaging the deeply buried instincts of maternal compassion and mercy, things we rarely engage with in our daily lives."
Several tracks feature female vocalists, in various styles, while on the title track Hosono ponders how to express various Japanese ideas such as omoiyari, jihi and boseiai in English and turned to the word 'sincerely'. "It is in this spirit that I offer this album to you, sincerely, from the heart."
This is the Japanese cassette tape that comes with a lyric booklet.
