This is the Digital Download reissue of the complete audio version of 
Niju that came out in Ristretto in May, 2008.
Grain of Sound is very proud to release this brilliant debut album from 
Asamo, making it now available worldwide.


The first version of Niju was released on a limited edition 3" CD-R, in 
May 2004, with 3 tracks and when Shinjiro Yamaguchi was just 20 years 
old. An expanded digital edition came out 4 years later, also in 
Ristretto, with 3 additional tracks.
Ristretto was the sister-label of Grain of Sound, active between 
2004-2008.


"(...) a young musician called Shinjiro Yamaguchi from Tokyo under his 
Asamo guise. He took the best of microsound influences, say John Hudak, 
Stephan Mathieu, Taylor Deupree and Richard Chartier and sauced them up 
with tiny, fragmented melodies(...)"
