HATSUSHIMO（初霜） — Japanese Lofi Mix for Reading, Rain & Calm Mind | Samurai Music

The first cold night of the year. The lone ronin walks home along a narrow path between the harvested rice fields, the stubble silvered with frost. A thin, cold drizzle falls, the moon slips in and out of the clouds and lies in the puddles at his feet, mist settles over the fields, and ahead a single paper lantern burns by the path. Beyond it a small thatched house waits with warm light in its windows and smoke rising from the chimney. Hatsushimo (初霜) — "the first frost of the year." Two hours of samurai music and Japanese lofi (koto, shakuhachi and soft lo-fi beats) with the sound of the season turning cold, for reading on a rainy night, calming the mind, or simply staying in while the frost settles outside. The ronin's road continues: a new night every few days. Subscribe to follow where he goes next.
