Radio Hito
Days and nights, living in the clarity of mind and voice : Radio Hito’s compositions get stripped down to the bare elements while still retaining the solemn power of truth. The words of others gain meaning of their own through a contemplatively personal rendition whose simplicity manages to brim with endless poetic possibility.
