With minimal undertones and moments of peace and relaxation, the Childhood Umbrella sounds like the most beautiful track in the world. This slow-breathing piano track with delicate samples (I spotted some in Greek too!) and incredibly light fusion by Zihao Chen has just transported us to a far-away memory. Perhaps there, where all seemed crackling bright, in the new dawn of a day, on a musical adventure we keep close in our hearts. I recommend you experience this track while on a travel route, and if that isn’t possible be sure that it will be a meditative song in the trails of the past. For lovers of Haruka Nakamura and the Erased Tapes roster, find Zihao Chen further: https://sitezihaochen.com/.
