The songs were inspired by the scenery and environment during walks along the banks of Lake Ejutsu in Kumamoto, his roots, and various places, sublimating the comfort of minimal daily life into sound, creating a relaxed electronic downtempo, ambient imaginary electronic environmental music work. It includes "horizons 2," "horizons 3," "horizons 4," and "horizons 5," which develop the title track "horizons 1." "horizons 2" features vocoder voices that evoke human activities, "horizons 3" is like the rhythm of contemplation while walking, and can be seen as an homage to early electronic music, "horizons 4" is a more stoic and minimal electro-dubwise track that seems to immerse in walking, and the last track "horizons 5" is a non-beat ambient taste that intersects with environmental sounds, as if gazing at the vast sky. It includes 5 versions of "horizons" that evoke the daily versions of "walks," where one immerses in scenery and walking at times, and contemplates at other times. Between these, "horizons Interlude" is inserted, followed by the electro version of "View 2" from "A View," which is being released on CD for the first time, "view 2 electro," for a total of 7 tracks. For this work, Hacchi, who is also involved in sound making and recording for Deavid Soul and Urban Volcano Sound, and works as a recording/mastering engineer, was fully involved in the co-production. Mastering was handled by Soichiro Nakamura of Studio Peace Music, who has produced many masterpieces, including Shintaro Sakamoto's solo works. The package artwork is a digipak CD with a 4P booklet, designed by Sei Suzuki. (Yusuke Kawamura) COMPUMA Koichi Matsunaga, born in Kumamoto in 1968.
