Transience by Nathan Kawanishi

About this album, Nathan says, "A brief 7-song album. Usually I pitch, chop, and layer samples to get the sound I want, but on this project I composed everything myself. Each song title is the name of a place that represents a specific experience, at a specific time, that is unique to me. I typically oscillate between specificity and ambiguity, but tend to favor the latter nowadays. The nature of place is inextricably linked to time, and the passage of time often decays the things that we find meaningful about a location. This is an attempt to immortalize what once was—if for no one else but myself."
