Maya Ongaku / by Peter Panacci

Here is an ambient Japanese band that my coworker and boss recommended to me. It’s one of the albums I listen to on repeat while walking, usually when things feel heavy enough that I need to lose myself in thought or disappear into the background.

When I have my headphones in and listen to music, I can disengage from everything, I become a shadow, a husk of a person, someone empty and transparent that no one sees or notices. More and more that is the most comfortable state of being for me.
