Teien by Mount Kōya
MOUNT KOYA - TEIEN
"Teien" is the fourth studio album from the neo-psych rock band Mount Kōya. After finishing their third album "Jinrui" and recovering from the global pandemic, band members Antoine Gauthier, Kevin Ruffieux, Léo Wahli, Matthieu Hoyois, Tim Dorsaz & Aria Konishi locked themselves away in their studio in Vevey, Switzerland searching for ideas for their new project. After two years of research, brainstorming, meticulous puzzlework and rearranging the sextet is ready to present their latest project to the world: a 9 track album inspired by the gardens of the world, showcasing deep and rouchy vocals as well as lyrical reverberated singing, springy guitars and melodic saturated electric pianos, static filled synth vibes and 70's smoke filled studio inspired rythm & bass sounds.
Composed by Antoine Gauthier, Kevin Ruffieux, Léo Wahli, Matthieu Hoyois, Tim Dorsaz & Aria Konishi (a.k.a. Mount Kōya).
Recorded and Mixed by Aria Konishi in Vevey.
Mastered by Mike Bridavsky at Russian Recording, Bloomington, Indiana.
Artwork by Pacifique Vuillemin.
Big thanks to AFM & la Ville de Vevey for their financial support.
Big love to our families & friends.
