Ambient Meditations Season 2 - Vol 34 - Chihei

For episode 34, we are joined by Chihei Hatakeyama, a sound artist, mastering engineer, and record label founder based in Japan. His new album Late Spring is out on Gearbox Records (one of our favorite new labels pressing up jazz, electronic, etc.) on April 7th and the first single "Sound of Air" on 2/12. Chihei's mix presents an authentic soundscape vibe, with immense beautiful ambient caverns to get lost in and what you might call the true definition of Ambient music in this beautiful genre halo we call Chillout. A presentation of artists dedicated to the art of sound design and musical white space, many of whom you may have never heard of unless you are a hardcore fan of the genre.
