After his great artistic and public access of his first release „Blowin` In The Wind Of Love“, Shintaro Haioka offers a sudden retasting of his old japan and new world mixery. With his „Harumi“ EP, this experienced electronic producer circles around various themes of human evolution. Harumi Shibukawa gave name to the EP and the first track, „Harumi“ invented the japanese calendar back in 1685. Time circles procede by „Good Luck“, processing beauty and noise of contemporary japanese everyday life. The EP goes on with a musical nature poem by the name of „Mizu – Bashou“ and „New Moon Light“, the moon being a symbol of the beginning of a new wheel`s spin. „Drift“ and „Standing In The Storm“ end this EP. By „Harumi“, Haioka again combines the japanese classical instruments such as the hyōshigi percussions or the koto zither with contemporary sound processing and effects. The result is even greater than before.
