Dezeen Music Project: Marks of a Tear
by Yu-Chi
Online music label Curious Absurdities has contributed some great chill-out tracks to Dezeen Music Project over the past few months (check them out here), but this instrumental composition by Japanese artist Yu-Chi is something very different. In fact, existing somewhere between the beautiful and the bizarre, Marks of a Tear isn't much like anything we've featured on Dezeen Music Project before.
The track comes from Yu-Chi's recently released album Monochrome Clown, which is well worth a listen and is available to download for free.
