Hiroshi Yoshimura – Soundscape 1: Surround – LP (Blue)

Originally released as an album in January 1986, “Surround” was recorded by Yoshimura as a commission from home builder Misawa Homes, intended to function as an “amenity” designed to enhance the company’s newly built living spaces.

In his original notes for the album, Yoshimura recommends that “Surround” be placed in the same family of sounds “as the vibration of footsteps, the hum of an air conditioner, or the clanging of a spoon inside a coffee cup.” And, as he suggests, “with the addition of city noise from outside the window,” you may hear “Surround” in a completely new way.
