"Double LP version.

The album explores the intersection of Lawrence's own ambient productions, acoustic sound experiments, and the driving force of the dancefloor. The artwork shows a 360-degree view of Yoyogi Park in the heart of Tokyo, which Stefan Marx created for a fanzine for Printed Matter's NY Art Book Fair in 2015.
