On March 20, Los Angeles label Temporal Drift will reissue the late Japanese composer Hiroshi Yoshimura’s album Flora. The reissue was executed in full cooperation with Yoshimura’s property, and the brand new editions function liner notes from the author and professor Junichi Konuma. The album was remastered by engineer John Baldwin. Under, take heed to the album’s opening music, “Over the Clover.”
Yoshimura recorded Flora in 1987, following his 1986 works Inexperienced and Encompass. The album, nonetheless, didn’t see the sunshine of day till a CD launch in 2006. Temporal Drift’s reissue marks the primary time that Flora will likely be obtainable broadly on vinyl, CD, and cassette, and digitally.
Yoshimura died, in 2003, on the age of 63. A 2017 reissue of his debut album, Music for 9 Postcards, introduced newfound consideration to the Japanese ambient music pioneer and his work.
