SHIRONEKO（白猫） | Japanese Zen Music for Sleep, Study and Meditation | 8 Hours of Winter Shakuhachi

SHIRONEKO（白猫）. A lone komuso monk in a black robe follows a white cat through the quiet fog. Eight hours of Japanese zen music for deep sleep, meditation, study and quiet work. Warm shakuhachi, soft koto, a gentle shinobue flute and distant wind chimes over still winter air. No drums, no vocals, no sudden changes. The music moves very slowly (around 52 to 58 BPM) so it stays in the background while you rest.
