On “Crépuscule”, you can hear the influence of the medium of film on Tujiko Noriko’s music. She produces synthetic music with a profound human presence. The spirit of a person wandering through the fantastic realms of the inner sphere is delicately portrayed by machines that usually tend to distort such humanistic tendencies. After the successful release of Crépuscule I and Crépuscule II, Tujiko Noriko began collaborating with filmmaker Joji Koyama to transform the moods and themes of the albums into a hypnotic audiovisual experience.
