Masayoshi Fujita :: Migratory

Masayoshi Fujita says his music aims to evoke the skies and mountains of his native village of Kami-cho, Hyogo, in Japan. To some extent, they really do: the sedative vibraphones and marimba of Migratory, bundled as they are with a geographical tracklist, allow us to visualize the natural tranquility that is so often associated with a branch of traditional Japanese music.
