When it comes to releasing intriguing new electronic music from around the globe, few labels are quite as accomplished as Métron Records.

With a small but varied back catalogue that includes stunning albums from 7FO, Meitei, and OCA the Berlin-based imprint takes a trip back to 1987 for a hidden gem by Japanese pianist Yumiko Morioka.

Originally released on Akira Ito’s ‘Green & Water’ label the album titled Resonance remains her only solo record – a truly beautiful, timeless collection of classical new age compositions.

Recorded on a Bösendorfer grand piano, the 10-track LP drew influence from the popular environmental music culture prevalent in Japan during the late 80s, as well as finding inspiration from Western musicians like Erik Satie and Brian Eno.

Listen to the extremely beautiful opening track ‘Komorebi’ above.
