Remastered version of out of noise, the first solo album released with commmons in 2009.坂本龍一The data left as the director's cut version has been newly mastered, and "- R" has been added to the title for a new release on LP. It also includes the previously unreleased song "081121_high". This quiet, all-instrumental work is the first original solo album without any synthesizer. The album features mainly piano and nature sounds, and invited guests include the British ancient music performance group Fretwork, sho player Tamami Higashino, Gagaku player Koyokai Nanto, and string players of various genres, including Keigo Oyamada, Hirotaka Shimizu, Ren Takada, Christian Fennesse, and Rob Moose. The album also includes "disko," "ice," and "glacier," which were strongly influenced by his experiences in the Arctic Circle, which he visited during the making of the album. The song "glacier" was later used in the movie "The Revenant" (directed by Alejandro González Iñárritu in 2016), and "hibari" and "hwit" were used in the movie "Monster" (directed by Hirokazu Koreeda in 2023).
