A mellow boom bap drum break lays the foundation for Snow Princess, a relaxing instrumental by Tokyo-based beatmaker Nine Tales. Built around a melancholic piano sample, layered with soft jazz guitar and subtle horns, the track drifts between nostalgia and quiet introspection.
Inspired by a night in Otaru, the piece reflects a fleeting encounter with a woman whose elegance lingered long after the conversation ended. Reimagined beneath falling Hokkaido snow, she becomes the "Snow Princess," distant, graceful, and almost unreal.
This marks Nine Tales' 12th release, capturing a moment suspended somewhere between memory and imagination.
Nine Tales is a beatmaker from Tokyo, Japan, who expresses deep human instincts and emotions through a coarse ambiance, akin to the Japanese concept of Wabi-Sabi. His love for old hardware samplers creates a rough yet soothing texture to his beats that are reminiscent of the 90s-a somewhat lost art in today's digital world. This specific warmth brings listeners back to their essence and pure self. Laugh, dance, or cry; all emotions are welcome here.
