Dune
A dune is a landform composed of wind- or water-driven sand. It typically takes the form of a mound, ridge, or hill. An area with dunes is called a dune system or a dune complex. A large dune complex is called a dune field, while broad, flat regions covered with wind-swept sand or dunes with little or no vegetation are called ''Erg (landform), ergs'' or ''sand seas''. Dunes occur in different shapes and sizes, but most kinds of dunes are longer on the wiktionary:stoss, stoss (upflow) side, where the sand is pushed up the dune, and have a shorter ''slip face'' in the lee side. The valley or trough between dunes is called a ''dune slack''. Dunes are most common in desert environments, where the lack of moisture hinders the growth of vegetation that would otherwise interfere with the development of dunes. However, sand deposits are not restricted to deserts, and dunes are also found along sea shores, along streams in semiarid climates, in areas of glacial outwash, and in othe ...

Water In Time And Space
is Susumu Hirasawa's first solo album. Background In December 1988, Hirasawa decided to put his post-punk/ new wave band P-Model on hiatus after spending two years being unable to arrange a recording deal, feeling that the group's continued existence was taking a mental and emotional toll on him. The following year, he was signed to Polydor, where he recorded ''Water in Time and Space''. Composition ''Water in Time and Space'' is half a self-cover album: With the band being put on hold, P-Model's ''Monster'' album was not recorded.

To prepare for the songwriting of new material, Hirasawa re-recorded "Happening by the Windowsi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
