'Felis Catus & Silence' is a breakthrough release for Tokyo composer-guitarist Leo Takami, following the milestone albums 'Children's Song' (2012) and 'Tree of Life' (2017). Takami counterpoints the soothing aesthetics of prime-era Windham Hill New Age guitar-heroism with meditative, intellectual compositions comprised of ambitious, process-oriented arrangements. While Takami largely wears his genre influences on his sleeve - jazz, classical, Japanese gagaku - the influence of ambient music is a tacit foundation of his work. Working diligently outside of any established communities for fringe musics, Takami conjures this association through a patient focus on generous musical intervals. Steady, kaleidoscopic unfolding of his compositions reflect Takami's creative intent to 'become aware of precisely the time and place I am living'.
