Milan Records presents 12, an intimate collection of twelve compositions by Ryuichi Sakamoto, written and recorded in Tokyo, Japan during his fight with cancer throughout 2021-2022. Each numbered title refers to its recording date. About the album, Sakamoto says: "....after I finally "came home" to my new temporary housing after a big operation, I found myself reaching for the synthesizer. I had no intention of composing something; I just wanted to be showered in sound. I'll probably continue to keep this kind of diary."
