Yugen is a concept album composed of 6 seamless moments which are a metaphor for a physical and mental initiatory journey.
“Like fog and sun / my sounds / disappear / they become / the rain / and they come down” are the verses written by Nahid Rezashateri,
giving the titles to the tracks of the album.
Mutation, metamorphosis, synesthesia, Yugen is a sonic journey, an immersion in an inner and natural landscape where the sound
intermingles intermittently and insistently in a new deep sensorial dimension.

The CD is wrapped inside a single sheet (poster) 39×32 that once folded forms a cover with a pocket. The poster is made up of a series
of black and white photographs and haiku poems in japanese calligraphy, while on the inside there are two poems, graphics and the
credits. The sheet is folded and set up by hand by a bindery in Rome and printed on Munchen print white 115 gr paper.
