WV Sorcerer Productions Shrine Piece:

"After over two decades of releases on PSF Records, Family Vineyard, Apollolaan and his own label Ghost Disc, WV Sorcerer is honored to present the latest physical release of Tokyo-based musician Hisato Higuchi. An album of melancholy guitar melody and whispers, like a longshot of the overflowing light on the Tokyo street, a monologue from far away. "

Reviews:

"Hisato is responsible for some of the most breathtaking, delicate, and smoke-filled guitar playing side of Loren Connors or the quieter sides of Keiji Haino. Those comparisons perhaps help to give an idea of ​​where Hisato's work floats, but it's clear listening to His music is a Tokyo labourer's blues. It evokes a ghost-like and ephemeral, auroral and sleep-deprived trance, his super slow and dreamlike guitar, sometimes lurking in feedback, sometimes barely touched His vocals, when he drags himself exhausted to the mic, seem both distant and close, and just plain shattered; emotionally, spirituallyIn its weightlessness, it often feels as if each song has been carried to you on the slightest of breezes, and that a change in the wind would carry it elsewhere. "

"I've been a huge admirer of Higuchi's work for years, but this album hit differently. There's a fragility to these minimal guitar and vocal compositions that feels just like 2020 felt – hanging on by the thinnest threads, riding wave after endless wave until you think you will break, only to stave off the breakdown by the slimmest of margins… and then you do it all again. It's a beautiful, impactful album. "
