	Story Behind the Song The music on this CD was performed on a Yamaha HX-1 Electone electronic keyboard. It is a hybrid instrument combining characteristics from both synthesizers and organs. While it has two keyboards and pedals like a traditional organ, the sounds that the HX-1 produces are more likely to be found in rock or pop songs. Among its features are an on-board drum machine, built-in digital sound effects, and a variety of auto-accompaniment options. At the time I wrote these songs, I was working for a Japanese company and thereby immersed on a daily basis in the Japanese culture. The Japanese-designed instruments I worked with were installed with Japanese-designed sounds, many modeled on traditional Japanese instruments. These sounds found their way into my songs, as well as influenced their tonalities. This CD reflects the impact of the entire experience on my life.
