“I’m thrilled to announce the upcoming release of my first solo mini-album, Dream of the Egg, coming out on November 15th. Inspired by the 1920s children’s book Yume No Tamago, this record weaves a deeply personal narrative of dreams and rebirth. I’m excited to share the first track, officially being released today, Zen Bungalow, a cover of Gabriel Yared’s theme song from the film Betty Blue (37°2 Le Matin). This track was born from a dream where I heard a blend of songs from the soundtrack, leading to a new arrangement that has become a central piece of Dream of the Egg.

In addition to the music, the album will include a beautifully illustrated picture book, created in collaboration with Shoko Otake and released through Future Days Shop.  The picture book, along with a double 7″ vinyl, will also be crafted and printed by my favourite book label, Terry Bleu, in Amsterdam. Pre-orders for this limited-edition record will begin this fall. Please enjoy the first single & stay tuned for more news coming soon”

The Picture Book:
Complementing the music is a beautifully-designed picture book illustrated by the acclaimed Japanese artist Shoko Otake. Printed by Amsterdam’s esteemed bookstore Terry Bleu, this 20-page book will  feature captivating visual artwork and storytelling that enhances the musical experience. 

• 500 copies
• A 20-page picture book illustrated by Shoko Otake
• 2 x 7-inch vinyl records
