Orochi

A dream collaboration album is born:
world-renowned violinist Seiko Yamane-known for her work with Tangerine Dream as well as her multifaceted career as a soloist and composer-joins forces with KASHIWA Daisuke, celebrated for his soundtrack to the film The Garden of Words and his prolific work in electronica, as well as his achievements as an audio engineer.

This 14-track album originates from Yamane's improvised "idea sketches."
Recorded at various times with no fixed instrumentation, the pieces freely shift between acoustic and electric violin depending on her feeling and intuition on the day. As a result, each track carries its own distinct tone and atmosphere, highlighting the raw immediacy and individuality that only improvisation can produce.
KASHIWA Daisuke then boldly deconstructed, reconstructed, remixed, and rearranged these performances, adding entirely new interpretations that reveal different aspects and hidden charms of the original sketches.

Blending Yamane's classical sensibilities with KASHIWA Daisuke's electronic and subtly oriental textures, the album becomes a vivid intersection of their artistic identities-an ambitious work where two unique worlds meet and resonate.
