Album "RIVER" by Shinya Ando (santoor player).
It's all original tunes made by Shinya Ando, created from his own santoor playing & sound effect only.
All 10 tracks, as the story that rain drops become river little by little then the journey to the sea. You can feel the variety of the river through the sound of this album.
It has different characteristics from classical style of his main road.
Very relaxing, feel great nature, ambient, like cinema, having some essence of dub techno music...
Anyway please listen & feel by yourself!

Also the jacket art is amazing oil painting by great artist Kozima Norio, created from images of this album sound.
