Hagaki on LP

Flofilz's new album Hagaki ("postcard" in Japanese) is a musical love letter to Japan-a sonic travel log that blends jazz and beats with Japanese music and culture. Recorded in both Berlin and Tokyo, Flofilz invited fellow musicians, beatmakers, and singers such as Takuya Kuroda, Nao Yoshioka, Toshiki Soejima, Budamunk, and Matt Wilde to join him on his journey. Acclaimed music and travel photographer Robert Winter was responsible for the outstanding visuals that accompany the album. Flofilz had visited Japan several times before-playing shows in Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto; enjoying some of the best food he'd ever had; and discovering rare records in meticulously curated record stores. He also ventured beyond the big cities, hiking through mountains, forests, and along coastlines. These experiences deepened his appreciation for how Japanese culture emphasizes harmony with nature. The attention to detail and sincerity found in Japanese art and craftsmanship are qualities that also define Flofilz's approach to music-making.
