Aoba Ichiko

Japanese first press 2025.
Quiet magic. Ichiko Aoba at her most delicate and inviting, pulling together singles from the last few years into one gentle, immersive listen. Soft acoustic guitar, hushed vocals, little melodic details that feel like they might float away if you breathe too hard. Nothing rushed, nothing flashy, just beautifully composed songs that reward proper attention. One for slowing the head down completely. Utterly lovely and very class.
