"I am thrilled to share my collaboration with Cornelius (Keigo Oyamada) on 'THE AMBIENT MACHINE - Cornelius edition'. Cornelius's work transcends music, encompassing live stages, record artwork, products, and publications. His outstanding creations have significantly influenced my journey as a creator.
The development of 'THE AMBIENT MACHINE' stems from my experiences during the pandemic, where I felt the need to use sound to condition and create environments. This led to the conception of a versatile tool that combines functionality and artistry.

Last year, I had the privilege of visiting Japan and attending Mr. Oyamada's exhibition and concert. This experience highlighted our shared interest in the concept of "Ambient," solidifying my belief in the potential of this collaboration.

For this project, Mr. Oyamada has crafted a bespoke ambient sound work, versatile to suit any environment. Together, we have also redesigned the identity of 'THE AMBIENT MACHINE', introducing new colors that symbolize its dual nature as both a device and an instrument.

This collaboration goes beyond Cornelius's new music piece; it offers a unique tool to shape and enhance environments. The result is a special sound experience that embodies our shared vision of ambient sound."


- Yuri Suzuki

Cornelius
Cornelius is the brainchild of Japanese multi-instrumentalist Keigo Oyamada. With the 1997 release of Fantasma, Cornelius gained international recognition for his cut and paste style reminiscent of American counterparts Beck and The Beastie Boys and was released internationally by Matador Records. Being called a "modern day Brian Wilson" for his orchestral-style arrangements and production techniques, Cornelius subsequently became one of the most sought after producer/remixers in the world, working with a wide range of artists including Blur, Beck, Bloc Party, MGMT, and James Brown.
