about

‘Hizashi’ is an experimental, mid-tempo vaporwave, electronic, pop stye track with vocal melodies & harmonies performed by John in both Japanese & English set to a beat track with a killer synth bassline and a sexy saxophone riff. Inspired by his travels in Japan and immersion in Japanese culture, John recently studied and passed a course in Japanese at Dundee University whilst working full time.
