"In 1997, releasing an album out of distinguished Belgium label Sub Rosa as Multiphonic Ensemble, was the beginning of an illustrious, multi-creative, and worldwide-based career for Yoshihiro Hanno. From that point onwards, Hanno was involved in many collaborations, produced soundtracks for a couple of movies, released his own music on his own Cirque label, and became a member of Ryuichi Sakamoto's group Hoon-- to mention a few. Yoshihiro Hanno's new album is his own progression of his peculiarity towards the expression of beats and rhythm which surpasses the many sounds of Hip Hop, House, Techno, electronics, contemporary music, and Jazz which he has journeyed through in the past. This album expresses Hanno's 2002 reality which was produced in Paris, Berlin, and Tokyo."
