Takako Minekawa explored the possibilities of experimental pop with albums like "Roomic Cube", "Cloudy Cloud Calculator", and "Maxi on". It's been 13 years since "Maxi On" and this upcoming album was made in collaboration with Dustin Wong. Dustin was the guitarist for the band Ponytail, and has released 2 solo records, "Infinite Love" and "Dreams Say, View, Create, Shadow Leads" through Thrill Jockey.

This collection of songs were completely produced and recorded by the two at home. The music strikes a lovely balance of homemade coziness and experimentation with charming humor . The two's musicality and human qualities galvanized into something brilliantly heart warming.

Dustin Wong's minimal yet imaginative surreal sound created through his guitar and pedals in combination with Takako Minekawa's graceful and eloquent voice, and the use of sampling, drum machine and keyboards resulted into a colorful and fantastic world. The sounds roll and change organically, gently taking the listener by the hand through a forest and to the sea.
