“Sunrise Rainfall” (by Toshi & Ashley feat. Seigen Ono) is a piece recorded and composed for immersive audio. Field recordings, along with guitar and electronic sounds, were recorded in Puerto Rico and Tokyo. This is also a reference piece for immersive audio playback systems.

Toshi & Ashley are a sound artist/poet duo based in Tokyo and New York. Together, they merge their curiosities toward the musical and literary; their compositions give spoken poetry a new life, interweaving visceral narratives with soundscape stories. Their artistic explorations extend beyond sonic expressions via collaborations with creative minds from exo-musical practices, such as motion graphics and artificial intelligence, to discover the endless possibilities of music, storytelling, and innovative technologies.
