Kōya Ogata announced a new work of EP "Blank Space -vol.5-".
Margin" is a series of works that use and sample only the material of the sound source service "Splice Sounds" of the subscription type, and he has been working hard to produce it with the hope that people will feel peaceful by listening to the music.
This work especially includes four chill-out songs "The white whale," "Dinner out girl," "Ephemeroptera," and "Tanna japonensis," which are suitable for the words "retreat" and "relaxation" and give a sense of healing and relaxation.
While paying attention to the titles, why don't you take a trip inside your brain and feel the unique worldview of Kōya Ogata?
