Urban Layer by Rill Saionji

127th full album.
Noise, minimal, ambient, electronica

When the skin of the city is peeled, what remains is sound.
Urban Layer is an experimental album by Rill Saionji, composed of ten sonic layers drawn from fragments of memory and sensation during life in Tokyo.
Voices and noise, silence and nostalgia, chaos and aphasia—all sediment as urban memory in the listener’s inner ear.
Emerging from the Zone Ray era, this work becomes a “postscript of poetry” and a “ruin of daily life.”

Born in 1974, based in Tokyo.
Rill Saionji is an interdisciplinary artist working across poetry, sound, video, collage, and installation.
His work explores themes of collapse, spirituality, and memory through layered media.
He is the founder of the experimental live unit Zone Ray, known for site-specific performances and sonic collage.
