I'll Wait Out the Rain Here | Japanese Jazz Bar × Relaxing BGM for Sleep & Study | 3 Hours, No Ads

"Welcome. Come in, come in — out of the rain. The window seat is free tonight." "Yes, warm sake first. I'll bring it right over." "Can you see the big gate out there? That's Miyajima. It looks like it's standing in the sea, but when the tide goes out you can walk all the way up to it. The pagoda behind it belongs to the temple up on the hill." "The oysters are on the house. Tonight they're raw, with a little ponzu over them — citrus and soy. The ones from around here are thick, and they shrink if you grill them, so raw is best. Squeeze the lemon over, lift the shell, and take the whole thing in one." "And those little maple-leaf cakes are momiji manju. Sweet red bean inside, and the outside is soft, like sponge cake. The island is known for them — have one after your sake." "It's raining tonight. Coming down harder now, isn't it. It should pass by midnight, though. When the clouds break, the moon comes out over that water. Quite a few customers stay just to see it." "...Next time you come, I'll show you a different view. Somewhere with snow, maybe." "Please take your time. There's no one else in tonight." ・3 hours, no ads, no talking, no interruptions ・10 pieces, two takes each, played through three times ・Recorded-feel jazz: real room, breathing tempo, analog warmth Best for: winding down after work, late-night reading, quiet dinners, falling asleep. ── About the music ── Played as if by a small band in one take. Piano, upright bass and brushes stay quiet all night, and the horns are voiced low. A koto opens the night and returns three more times. This is a jazz record with a Japanese evening in it, not a traditional Japanese record. ── About the cats ── Their names are Kote and Chayo. They are always here. Headphones or a good speaker will bring out the room behind the music. #JazzMusic #RelaxingMusic #StudyMusic #SleepMusic #JapaneseJazz #RainSounds
