Magic Hour

Satoshi Tomiie Releases New Album 'Magic Hour' on his own Abstract Architecture Imprint. The long playing marks his 3rd, and first solo album release since 'New Day' in 2015. Over the past three years, Tomiie has dedicated himself to crafting the music on 'Magic Hour'. Drawing inspiration from various sources, he has created a collection of tracks that showcase his evolution as an artist. With multiple releases during this period, Tomiie has honed his sound and refined his artistic vision.

The first single from the album, titled 'Echos Cosmiques', was released in early 2023 to critical acclaim. It served as a taste of what was to come, generating anticipation and excitement for the full album release. One of the standout tracks is the title tune, 'Magic Hour', which features Kuniyuki Takahashi on live percussion. The collaboration between Tomiie and Takahashi adds an organic and vibrant element to the album.

Tomiie's previous release under the moniker Sato, 'Blue, Black and Grey' (Chapelle XIV Music / 2022), showcased his interpretations and realizations influenced by dub and ambient music. This album served as a fantastic introduction to the musical journey that 'Magic Hour' continues. Building upon the foundations laid by 'Blue, Black and Grey', 'Magic Hour' further solidifies Tomiie's unique and everlasting artistic trajectory. Furthermore, fans can look forward to the second single from 'Magic Hour', which is scheduled to be released early in 2024. The single will feature a remix from DJ Honesty, adding a fresh perspective to the album's already captivating sound.
