Shades EP

Found a random live improvised session of some solo piano back in 2021. Produced in the style of "Ultisa" and "Dark Hearth" - these dreamy piano tracks swell and soar in soothing sonic waves. Hope you enjoy this quick experiment from Imisu ~

Imisu - Far Flight Home - Remixes (Cont.)

Some extra remixes that didn't make the cut in time, or some I felt didn't jive with the rest of the remixes. Here we have two special remixes from "midside" & "Suri Sunriser" - using glitchy sporadic experimental elements. Alongside with two dark and haunted ambient remixes from Violet A. Foster & RANDEL .the ghost. ~

Released: December 12th, 2023

 

Imisu - Far Flight Home (Deluxe Edition)

Imisu is back with another full album. Continuing off of the vibes and themes from "Long Drive Home" - "Far Flight Home" is a warm and optimistic experience. Consisting of only guitar, aesthetic textures and nostalgic melodies. Using a plethora of effect pedals and production techniques to create such subtle lullabies. All the while still delivering that signature Imisu sound. A satisfying & mature follow up to this project's discography.

For the first time ever, Imisu has invited their musician/producer friends to create remixes as a special feature. Check them out on SIDE B!

Imisu - Grace [single]


An epilogue track to the latest Imisu EP "Sundown" - "Grace" brings the twinkle and a bit of the experimental and psychedelic back into focus. Whilst still having that grounded down-to-earth vibe created on "Sundown.”

Imisu - Thinking of You [single]

Minimal, emotion driven and liminal. Something slightly new for this project. Losing the multi-layering and keeping it simple. A love letter to yearning. Checkout the incredible music video by Turbulent Determinism

Still Searching

Recently touched up and mastered. These were written in the time span of 2015-2018. I can just barely remember writing any of these. It's just a fog now. But re-listening back certainly is a vague trip into nostalgia.

Skydream

Composed of all guitar. Jumping back and forth from acoustic. Similar to the early releases yet these are much more active and flowing, like they are leading somewhere or just slowly swimming through the air.

Resin [single]

I sent LBL some unreleased Imisu tunes to sample flip and throw some drums on. They came back with a beat, bells, a bass and a well chopped Imisu tune. After a few adjustments I added several layers of vocals to top it off.

Ultisa

Improvised within 45 minutes. Using analog gear, solo piano recording techniques, and the signature Imisu reversing/warping. I'm very happy how this came out especially Becka's parts. Next step from Dark Hearth.

Sleep Moments 3 (ft. Cosette Gobat)

A mixture of Cosette’s vocals heavily washed out, she also wrote a swelling hypnotic bass riff. Imisu brings back some guitar techniques that were commonly used in Long Drive Home (2017).

Little Twos

Written/improvised within 45 mins. Using my multi effects and looper pedal, this EP poured out of me like a breath. A jumble of neoclassical inspired songs. My blending of guitar layers create this almost seamless voice.

Sleep Moments 2

A plethora of glistening yet dusty sounding guitars. Like SM1, the moment is played how it was recorded. Then a second warped version to follow. Played on repeat.. it’s easy to get lost within…

Little Ones

A warped re-mixed & mastered version of Crossing Bridges - Sleeping Dog II. These two songs really take their time, and flow like a gentle stream of consciousness. Very sleepy.

Apple Music Spotify Soundcloud

Samples of the local trains passing. Using extremely light drums / percussion through very subtle loops throughout. And of course… subtle, chill, spacey ambient guitar layers.

Apple Music Spotify Soundcloud

Mini album, written and recorded in one day through Kevin Brusha's Quad Verb amp and a looper. These live loops immediately entice the listener. One of my favorite releases of this project yet.
