First-ever official reissue of the pioneering 1986 ambient work Produced in full cooperation with Hiroshi Yoshimura's estate
New liner notes by original album producer Hiroyoshi Shiokawa Includes Yoshimura's original notes in Japanese and English
first-ever reissue of Surround, Hiroshi Yoshimura's sought-after ambient classic.
Originally released as an album in January 1986, Surround was recorded by Yoshimura as a commission from home builder Misawa Homes, intended to function as an "amenity" designed to enhance the company's newly built living spaces
. A pioneer in the field of environmental music, Yoshimura's previous works included Music For Nine Post Cards (1982) and the acclaimed and popular GREEN (1986); the two albums are described by Hiroyoshi Shiokawa in his liner notes as being Yoshimura's yin and yang.
