The moment when rain falls is not merely a meteorological event—it seeps into space, body, and memory, bringing subtle fluctuation and purification to the world.
This EP, "ukoku(Rain刻)", revolves around three distinct types of rain—Suiu (rain enveloping new greenery), Byakuu (the intense summer downpour), and Hiu (the persistent, quiet drizzle).
Within sound and silence, between fluctuation and spaciousness, the presence of water emerges as an internal landscape.
Like the invisible flow in a Zen dry garden, each raindrop etches lines into space, quietly evoking personal memories and sensations in the listener.
Purification, fluctuation, memory—three kinds of rain transforming through time, captured in sound and silence.
