Ichiko Aoba - Windswept Adan

Release Date	13/02/2026
Format	2LP Black
Label	Hermine
Catalogue Number	HERM001LP

Windswept Adan, Aoba’s seventh studio album, was originally released in 2020. Marking a significant departure from her earlier, more solitary works, Aoba collaborated with composer Taro Umebayashi to craft a mesmerising and richly imaginative concept album that moves fluidly between ambient psych-folk, chamber classical, and jazz-inflected composition.

Conceived as the soundtrack to an imaginary film, Windswept Adan follows a young girl exiled from her homeland to the mythic island of Adan — a lush, otherworldly place filled with strange creatures, abundant flora and fauna, and no spoken language. Its orchestral textures and vivid sound design create an immersive, cinematic world.

Deluxe 2LP pressed on Eco-Mix Vinyl. Includes lyric insert.
