Azumi Okaruma & Andrea Esperti - Nighthawks Azumi Okaruma & Andrea Esperti

WRWTFWW Records is very happy to announce the release of Nighthawks, the new collaborative album from composer Azumi Okamura and musician / sound designer Andrea Esperti, available on limited edition LP (300 copies worldwide!) cut at 45rpm, and housed in a heavyweight sleeve with inside-out print.

A sublime convergence of Japanese piano poetry and Swiss sonic craftsmanship, Nighthawks brings together Azumi Okamura's intimate, emotionally resonant compositions with Andrea Esperti's refined approach to sound design.
Esperti is known for his work alongside ambient legend Takashi Kokubo, and here he extends that sensibility into an intimate and immersive space.

Echoes of dreams from an imaginary world drift through the album: forgotten memories rising gently, only to fade again.
The music unfolds like a series of inner scenes - reflective, rich with atmosphere – where minimal piano motifs meet organic textures and subtle electronic detail.

Rooted in the emotional solitude of Edward Hopper's urban landscapes, Nighthawks balances stillness and warmth.
Gentle, simple melodies glow softly, wrapped in environmental music that evokes autumn air and walks by the beach.
Resisting excess and spectacle, the record embraces poetic minimalism and emotional clarity.
Each piece feels suspended in time, offering quiet moments that linger long after the sound has faded...a drifting, cinematic journey shaped by sensitivity and restraint.
