Tribute To Ryuichi Sakamoto - Micro Ambient Music Vol. 1

Sound over music. Micro Ambient Music was collected as a memorial to the music of the late Ryuichi Sakamoto, who was obsessed with small things in his later years. This compilation album was assembled by Hakkin Date, who is also an artist himself. It was awarded the German Music Critics Award 2023 in the category of Electronic & Experimental. The definition of ambient music, which can be played to create silence, is wide-ranging. Among them, Ryuichi Sakamoto's pursuit is evident in the music of his later years, when he began to make extensive use of field recordings, noise, and other non-instrumental sounds. Micro Ambient Music is a memorial work spun by musicians who revere Sakamoto's music of that period. This is a collection of music that uses non-instrumental sounds to bring silence.
