Keiichiro Shibuya's new electronic music album is a soundtrack for the film "xxxHOLiC" directed by Mika Ninagawa. In contrast to Midnight Swan by a piano solo, which won major film music awards in 2020, this album consists of complete electronic sound with 21 tracks, including collaborations with sound artist evala and Buddhist chant Eizen Fujiwara. Music was mixed by Kiri Stensby in NYC and mastered by Enyang Urbiks in Berlin, and crosses minimal, noise, drone, techno, dub, and even Buddhist music with a motif that reflects diffusely as if in response to a film in extremely colorful settings.
