This is a Modern piece .

Flow appears on the following albums:

Album	Shakuhachi	Koto	Shamisen
Tokyosphere  (Listen)	Neptune, John Kaizan
"Flow", "Sway" and "Stream Dance" are a set of three tunes that can be heard in sequence as one large piece or separately. They all use a five-tone scale which is found in Okinawa and Indonesia. "Flow" shows influences from gamelan and minimal music. The two koto and the bass koto use harmonics in the introduction to create a "light rain" background for the shakuhachi solo.
