Akio Niitsu’s first album, “I/O(io)” released in 1978, was produced in a homemade studio that had been converted from a storeroom in his home, and he spent three years doing everything from composition to engineering by himself, using overdubbed guitar recordings. Akio Niitsu’s first analog re-release has been decided.

As a guitar multi-recording album, the idea was realized six years earlier than the album “E2-E4” released in 1984 by Manuel Gttsching, the central figure of “Ash La Tempel“, but it was too early. A hidden experimental/ambient gem!

The paradoxical sound that makes you feel as if you are lost deep in a labyrinthine forest, combined with Tadanori Yokoo’s artwork, is a piece that allows you to enjoy Akio Niitsu’s worldview with your ears and eyes.
