宇治香園

In 2015, COMPUMA, together with its guitarist ally Takehisaken, known for his work with KIRIHITO, GROUP, and others, produced the first analog LP of a musical work commemorating the 150th anniversary of the founding of Kyoto's long-established tea wholesaler Ujikouen! The album is an imaginative, landscape-inspired sound drama dedicated to tea and tea gardens, featuring field recordings and guitar performances in a tea garden in the mountains of southern Kyoto, and completed with electronics, processing, and editing mixes. The artwork was written by Tomoo Gokita, a painter who has gained international acclaim in recent years, photographed by Masayuki Shiota, and designed by Sei Suzuki. In addition, for this analog release, the album has been remastered by Soichiro Nakamura, and the artwork and design have been completely redesigned.
