"This album is background music when you are reading, studying, etc. And please fall asleep.
The volume is set low, which is intended for music as background music. It is recommended that you listen to music indoors and in an environment where there are few people." - noda yûki
"ddbb" by Osaka-based noda yûki can only be described as a cozy, introspective take on the minimal Japanese ambient/Kankyō Ongaku
genre contextualized for a modern setting.
As yûki says in the liner notes that accompany the album, he composes in this environmental vein, but instead imagines the experience of quietly sitting and working in a university library as opposed to the natural aesthetics that have come before it.
Each song title uses an English or Japanese library classification, and the final product sounds akin to if "Music for 9 Postcards" - era Hiroshi Yoshimura was commissioned to make music for the Wii shop channel.
