If you have multiple products in your order, you can choose the ‘Direct Ship’ option to receive products as they become available in multiple shipments. Otherwise, they will be grouped in a single shipment (or your next ROTM shipment for members) after all products are received at our warehouse.

Since pre-order albums are not available to ship until the manufacturing completes, the actual ship date can shift. If there is a delay, we will always contact you.

Description

Yogetsu Akasaka–a beatboxing Buddhist monk and handpan player from Japan–makes music that is focused on the eternal here and now. His music asks for you to slow down, relax, and settle into the waves he creates. Centered around the kōan that you’re never in the same river twice, his swirling, headtrip beats are created live, in real time, improvisation providing the way forward.

He briefly went viral during COVID for one of his meditations on YouTube, but he’d never made an album or put out anything physical until we asked. The result is Sacred Ceremony, an album made to the lengths of vinyl sides, two 22-ish minute suites Akasaka made especially for this Vinyl Me, Please release.

So buy this, and instantly improve your meditation practice with this album. Comes with an obi strip, and custom mandala art from Aditya Pradhan.
