Prog. notes: UJO stands for "rainy morning" and IMU for "rainy season" (monsoon). This piece is a
reminiscence of a specific time and geographic location in my life, Nagasaki, Japan, in 1999.
Non-processed concrete sounds and substantially processed samples coexist in the electronics
portion. They are varied, detailed, subtle, flexible, reactive, blending with and supporting one
another.
