Yogiri means night fog. We recorded most of it after midnight in the room above the old ferry office, then took the mixes down to the harbour to hear them on a car stereo.

About

The two of us

Kuroshio is Ryo and Emi. We met at a modular synth night in Namba in 2019, both standing at the back, and started playing together the next week.

The name is the warm current that runs past Japan. We make slow electronic music for late trains and empty streets, and we play it live on hardware.
