Guitar project is an exploration of (and love-letter to) the eponymous instrument; with 'Tokyo' following on from the My Bloody Valentines-inspired 'Sunkissed' (Morr Music) and Bluegrass excursions of 'Honeysky'. Taking traditional Japanese compositions as his muse, '
Tokyo' draws on the sound of Pipa and Koto guitars to engender a blossom-fall of delicate instrumentation that liberally fizzes with articulate piano parts and soaring soundscapes. Whilst the majority of 'Tokyo' is instrumental, three songs are seasoned by the vocal skills of Ayako Akashiba; with the first of these ('Tokyo Memory') an ethereal smudge of electronica which recalls the scented output of Piana or Mum.
