I'm so happy to release my seventh album, "Hymn", as vinyl. I converted the original recordings, which had been done in DSD (Direct Stream Digital) format, to 24bit/96kHz WAV files and then remastered them as the sound sources of this release. I'm sorry that I had to make 'Stratosphere' and 'Faraway' shorter than the originals, due to the data capacity of a 12" LP record. Please enjoy the most popular album of mine, by warm and lively sound of analog record.
