"Prite & Premonition"
The first collaboration work between former Japan David Sylvian and former Kang Holger Czukay. An experimental acoustic work consisting of two long instrumental songs. "Plight" is an improvisational performance by Sylvian, Shukai, former Kang Yaki Liebezeit, and Karl Lippigaus, and was completed by Shukai with bold editing. ".Premonition" is only two people, Sylvian and Shukai. It was recorded in, and has not been overdubbed or edited. According to Sylvian, "one of the few works that can be enjoyed objectively as a listener." [1988 work]

"Flux & Mutability"
The second collaboration work between former Japan David Sylvian and former Kang Holger Czukay. It is a more "musical" work than "Prite & Premonition", and in addition to former Kang Yaki Liebezeit and Michael Karoli, Marcus Stockhausen, the son of Karlheinz Stockhausen, the teacher of Shukai, participated. "Flux" is a work that literally fluids while mixing Sylvian's trademark shortwave radio with Sylvian's synths, guitars, and percussion. On the other hand, "Mutability" is a beautiful ambient work with a feeling of floating. [1989 work]
