Ichiko's shortest is also maybe the best way to introduce newcomers to her work: a swift fairytale that doesn't have the capacity to overwhelm, neither does it go on for long enough to bore.

A tad less magical than the debut, this treads the same path as usual for Ichiko, but this one path wasn't made by leprechauns or nagas. Ye that's a fucked analogy, but although this is great folk, there isn't many moments that make you go "ah", stop everything, and wonder how this tiny lady can consistently amaze you. She doesn't amaze this time, but she still embarks you on a lovely walk.

Might be a matter of listening conditions, but while sweet and indubitably pretty, this one didn't feel as magical as the debut. Most of the songs feel simpler and more of what you'd expect upon hearing the words 'pretty japanese guitar folk'. This is clear from the start with 1-2. 3 does reintroduce Ichiko's delightful strummed cascades, and when the simpler 4 comes is works quite better than 1-2 in contrast. 5, continues this, then 6 is more of a playful fun track, immediately followed by another highlight on the darl, rich 7. Really cool, but also makes the album atmosphere feel a touch to erratic. 8 finishes on a pretty track again to conclude nicely. Sweet, but debut felt better on first listen. 3.75
