When you listen to Ichiko Aoba, you are drawn into a world that is as intimate as a warmly lit home, but of cosmic proportions.

The Japanese singer, songwriter, composer and multi-instrumentalist has built a loyal online following with her TikTok sounds, which have received critical acclaim, and has translated into international tours in more than 20 countries. She is well known in Japan - she has collaborated with artists such as Haruomi Hosono, Cornelius and the late Ryuichi Sakamoto - but "Windswept Adan" earned her the admiration of fellow musicians such as Japanese Breakfast, Pomme and Weyes Blood.

Aoba's latest album, "Luminescent Creatures", is the culmination of her 15-year career and shows how she skillfully fuses jazz-infused folk with orchestral world building. The album is available exclusively on eco-vinyl and the eco-friendly packaging reflects Aoba's commitment to protecting the environment.
