" B.P.S. would like to thank Kawabata Makoto,Sachiko(Elf Design),and M. Kazmierczak for helping to make a dream come true!"

Floating Flower is an acid folk unit comprising me, Yuki and Tetsuya Kaneko. The other two are always travelling around India, and I've forgotten where I first met them, but the group started when I suggested creating a folk unit that featured Yuki's vocals. But in the end we just spent all our time improvising these really long minimal pieces, and they became the first album. Yuki starts singing she slip into a trance and fly off somewhere.

Any time Kaneko or Yuki have some free time they go off to travel round India. I never have any idea when they're going to be back to record the next album. While they're away, their house is filled with a bunch of spongers. But that must be the way they like to live. They don't care at all whether their CDs sell, or whether we reissue them on LP and CD. That isn't what they're about ? their concerns are somewhere else entirely.
