The Nightfall




Digital, streaming and limited edition cassettes, the album is released by London-based label Naviar Records. The Nightfall is a collection of four compositions, each one inspired by a seasonal haiku. 

By combining abstract electronics, haunting soundscapes and field recordings textures, Manja recreates the evocative atmosphere of haiku without using words: just like Kigo in haiku poetry, sounds can evoke memories, images, and associations. The tracks in The Nightfall are moments frozen in time that can be perceived rather than seen, allowing the mind of listeners to reinterpret in their own way these four deeply moving soundscapes.
