About Boy and the Tree: 

The Boy and the Tree was composed after a visit to Yakushima Island, an outstandingly beautiful world heritage site off the southern tip of Japan, scored by a deep, lush and ancient ravine, home of the ancient 7000-year old ‘Jōmon Sugi’. Tree. Also the inspiration for Miyazaki’s epic anime Princess Mononoke, a conflict between the rampant greed and destructive force of humanity, and the stoic, mysterious fragility of nature.

Susumu Yokota World Listening Tour:

Susumu Yokota redefined ambient music with a series of 14 extraordinary albums, released from 1998 through to 2012. At the height of this success, he abandoned his graphic design practice and his commercial music career and established the Skintone imprint. His lasting influence and impact on electronic and contemporary music is difficult to overstate. This event is part of a celebration of this legacy.
