1984 · THE LISTENING ROOM

VERMILION

Jin Kirigaya

The review

The transition to a digital sound is complete here, yet Kirigaya's soft melodic lines remain at the heart of the record. The light A2 and the quietly sensual A4 show how well his writing adapts to the new textures. B1 brings the atmosphere of a night suddenly broken by rain.
