Remon Nakanishi - Till the Ravens Rise at Dawn (2026) [Hi-Res]

The Tokyo-based label Doyasa Records, run by Agatha, has released a highly ambitious new album by Japanese singer Remon Nakanishi, serving as the follow-up to his 2022 record Hinano Iezuto. The project is a monumental exploration of Japanese roots music, including min'yo folk songs and traditional goze-uta (songs of blind itinerant women) that have historically been sung by ordinary people. The album's concept emerged from the creators' shared interest in alternative bon odori festival music and goshu ondo. Producer Agatha integrated diverse global musical styles into the arrangements, recruiting nineteen versatile musicians for the sessions, including keyboardist Emerson Kitamura and Brazilian drummer Daniel Baeder.
