Although completed in 1987—following his seminal works *GREEN* (1986) and *SURROUND* (1986)—this album remained unreleased for nearly two decades. Based on a graphic score titled \"FLORA\" created by Yoshimura himself, the album explores themes of flowers, plants, and the surrounding natural world; he produced it entirely on his own through multi-tracking, utilizing instruments such as the Yamaha DX7 synthesizer and a sequencer. Unlike his previous works, which leaned heavily toward \"functional music\" designed not to intrude upon the spatial environment, this album brings melody to the forefront, unfolding a refreshing soundscape with a pop-inflected, sweet, and charming resonance. The release includes liner notes by Junichi Konuma, a professor at Waseda University's School of Humanities and Social Sciences and a renowned Japanese music and literary critic. Don't miss this chance to own a masterpiece revived through John Baldwin's remastering and the full cooperation of the Hiroshi Yoshimura estate!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=536135812\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/transparent=true\/\" seamless\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hiroshi-yoshimura.bandcamp.com\/album\/flora\"\u003eFlora Hiroshi Yoshimura\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Temporal Drift","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45678292074703,"sku":null,"price":3300.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0577\/5022\/5103\/files\/a1781739056_10.jpg?v=1785817987","url":"https:\/\/oddtape.com\/products\/flora-tape-hiroshi-yoshimura","provider":"ODD TAPE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
