Saudades (kc012) by Melodia

Melodia is Federico Durand (known for his popular works on SPEKK, Home Normal, Own Records) and Tomoyoshi Date who is one half of Optiope (SPEKK) and Illuha (12K). Together they bring out harmonic
lullaby-esque music that are pleasant throughout. The album was produced in 2012 when they did an European tour together, and the original mastering is done by Stephan Mathieu who let them stay at his house at the time. The album title “Saudages” encompasses all of these wonderful memories, and beatiful layers of sounds floats and dissapears in slowmotion. Originally released on Own Records as vinyl only, but we made a special CD version, adding 4 more unreleased tracks.

2013年にLPでリリースされ高評価を得るも入手困難だった隠れた名盤が奇跡のCD化!!Federico DurandとTomoyoshi Date(Opitope, Illuha)というメロディックアンビエントの名手達が組んだ黄金ユニットのデビュー盤である今作は、オリジナルのLP盤より書き下ろし曲4曲を加え、収録時間にして約2倍ほどボリュームを増した特別盤！アコースティック楽器や異国の環境音が紡ぐ、輝かしくもどこか郷愁をそそられる麗らかな音響の楽園が此処に。
