yk “In the Hollow Room” out 2026.4.26

2026-4-15

yk (Hello1103) will officially release “In the Hollow Room,” a collection of music created for machina’s solo exhibition “Hollow Room” on 2026.4.26. The release will be available starting at M3 2026 Spring (Booth: A-08ab).

This work originally served as the soundtrack for the exhibition held last year at “gallery hydrangea” in Hikifune, Tokyo.
That serene and beautiful exhibition space disappeared along with the end of the show, but this album was created to preserve fragments of it in sound.

Dedicated to the girls in those paintings—fleeting, yet dignified.(yk)

yk Releases “Kakuriyo” on Streaming Services

2026-3-21

yk’s work “Kakuriyo” is a Japanese horror–inspired dark ambient piece that sonically depicts a near-death experience. It was originally released on cassette tape in December 2024 via the horror label Kikizte.

Though it had only been available in cassette format until now, it has been remastered and will be released on various streaming platforms through our independent label, GoodDog Records.

On the cassette version, the A-side was labeled simply as “Kakuriyo” and the B-side as “Kanokishi.” For streaming distribution, the work has been divided into 13 tracks.
The A-side “Kakuriyo” corresponds to tracks “Corrosion” through “Kakuriyo,” while the B-side “Higan” corresponds to “The Border” through “Sea of Mourning.”

The cassette edition is still available via Kikizte.
A special version is also offered, which includes incense inspired by the music, created by Yurasu Kaori and Mamiko Imai. Be sure to check it out.
