Tottomori ~ Sproutpup [Full Album]

[@tottomori]

I believe this has officially become an algorithm cult classic (maybe not a classic yet... one day maybe ^^) and hands down the most recognized work I've made so far. Thank you all so so much for listening and all the kind comments, I read them all! I'm aiming to do a vinyl release this summer, but the sheer amount of joy this seems to have given you is more support I'd ever ask for. Truly thank you. Thank you for listening, thank you for sharing your thoughts and I hope I'll see you again in the future! On to more adventures ~

[@GTICHATTER]

let me know where to sign up for the tottomori cult, u r a great leader with great taste.

[@hole1274]

Hey, I like you

[@faithbresciani9425]

Holy cow!!! If you do a vinyl release PLEASE tag me!! We just got a record player!!

[@brosephlyle]

found this record through the algorithm and then spotify fed it to me as well. So great. Reminds me of early Royksopp. Wish you all the best and success.

[@Tea-uo7ev]

I'm OBSESSED with this album! It's great for my college studying :)

[@DeanJayJackmanJr]

This reminds me of stumbling upon Plantasia. Great vibes.

[@pqlasmdhryeiw8]

The artwork is giving Solar Punk meets Samorost the video game.

[@usernamesrtoostupid]

So like the videogame Botanicula?

[@herettahuston9457]

I really like this description :)

[@sevenhecks]

IS GIVING HURRRR DURRRRRR

[@DailySoulRefreshers]

It’s giving…!?!?!!! 😂

[@coldcartcold8633]

Sad for me, now that i can't tell if it was done by AI

[@subbion]

i’m def one to choose an album by the cover lol so thank god this has such great artwork bc otherwise i prob never would have found such a great sound

[@tottomori]

Lucky I spent some time on it! Thank you for listening :)

[@MattieCooper10000]

Oh, without fail almost, when the cover art is dreamy and abstract and outlandish you can expect a thoughtful trip or meditation and when it's generic so goes the music.

[@panch1ko]

this album is my safe place.

[@gjungart]

This is so good! Reminding me of 90s japanese ambient at times, and then going in a more shoegaze direction at others :D

[@tottomori]

Absolutely love older Japanese ambient stuff, Im glad it shows, thank you for the comparison :)

[@felixx321]

I think I like it when the sprout pops.

[@adelinedharma]

oh my, blessed my youtube algorithm. Lovely album

[@MellyWilliams]

this feels simultaneously nostalgic and futuristic. the sound is fresh and earthly at the same time, i really like it. Hope you continue cultivating this unique blend 💚💜

[@MerlinsFiles]

Well said!

[@rayres1074]

How much of múm have you been influenced by? Your gentle, sparse, rather ethereal branch of indietronica really reminisces me of them.

[@tottomori]

I haven't really listened to them to be honest, this was a great comparison though i see just what you mean! Ill be influenced by them from now on haha

[@aidadir]

That whole album feels like spinach soup for some reason

[@JacobVanLennepkade]

I can't imagine a life withouth this record anymore. Lichen Crown has burned in my soul. Please make more of this beautiful music!

[@liamverrall]

this projects aesthetics are upper echelon

[@tottomori]

never thought the day would come when it was referred to as upper echelon, thank you!

[@soup3374]

I found this while on the train and it turned a somber ride home into a delight in an instant. I've been listening to it nonstop since and it's made a nice home in my head. If breath catches hold is my favorite track. Thank you for making this it's very lovely.

[@bexiexz]

a nice home in yuor head! i love that! i feel similarly x

[@oleksandernagel]

о боже мій це було так кльово мені аж дах зірало !!! феєрично !!!

[@prettyangel56432]

only 26 secs in and alr in love

[@Zanexous]

So sweet is really charming, though a bit abrasive near the end

[@guodza]

Awesome sounds, feels like I'm inside of a big friendly green web world 💚 Keep making music, it's very pleasant and unique! 💫 upd: I listened to this album more than five times today - when I was at work, when I was driving home and now I’m listening to it again while I’m drawing ✿ wonderful album, thank you for sharing your healing art 🤍

[@tottomori]

Thank you for listening and the kind words!

[@Time.Is.A.Theorie]

listening to this feels like im going on a journey through my headspace. i love it. thank u for creating this

[@huesosdelmonte]

THIS IS AMAZING.

[@StevenHarmonGames]

This gives me Brian Eno vibes, let me know if you ever want to collab on a game or something.

[@parasocialbondsmetaswvoits9078]

oh, this shit slaps my soul. overloaded guitar indicates some sort of coming-of-age for me. and vocals make things personal, as it should be. love it, thanks for the upload.

[@2001fantasmat1ko]

son 00:26, hace un rato me puse a escuchar esto que guarde en ver más tarde hace unos días, me puse a dibujar, pensar, y soltar todo eso en la libreta, y fue un viaje increíble de sonidos, te envuelve en el ambiente Gracias x esto, q buen álbum no caaAp

[@Rafa7ProGamer]

I LOVE stray

[@JohnDoe-g4e]

I have been summoned by the algorhithm to add this to my playlist of music to literally melt to (in a good way)

[@karenrojas1269]

Es sencillamente hermoso

[@majora42]

yoooooooooo this is sick wtf

[@tottomori]

thank you !

[@arxaaron]

Loving on track 2, "Stray" a lot. Appeals to my '80's electronic pop sensibilities I think.

[@trulyrealforreal]

I don't know if i listen to it fully now or keep it safe on my box till i drop some acid. Regardless, this caught my attention for sure.

[@tottomori]

sounds like a good plan either way, enjoy!

[@aistral666]

fresh sounds

[@killynx]

discovering this instantly brought so much joy to my day, the muffled grungy sound feels like rain washing the dust off leaves, or like running barefoot on moss. thank you for your work, this is really a treasure!!!

[@moot5978]

"Please tell me that my skin won't weigh you down". What a lyric!! I love it :D

[@sydbrockyo5788]

this album cures me

[@carriebarton8325]

Love this. Dusting off some BoC, too! Love musics cyclical nature. This hits all my old sweet spots.

[@nyuh]

this sounds so cool maybe i was just really eepy when i first listened but i felt like it kept going where i didnt expect it to go and that was fun

[@tottomori]

thank you for listening, im glad it was an experience haha

[@nyuh]

@@tottomori :]]

[@leukosnanos]

'So sweet' is so amazing. So it's the 'Lichen crown'.

[@moringaflower1998]

it's been a while since i've listened to an album on repeat or that i keep going back to. i only have a few albums i can say are my fave and i think i just discovered a new one

[@TallicaMan1986]

So Sweet is nice with that distorted delayed guitar lead.

[@lossaltamontesdemos6061]

wow nice

[@ricardoroman7511]

What a masterpiece. It's like an auditive kaleidoscope. Hope you get millions of views someday.

[@oleksandernagel]

the end was fire

[@maggotbrother]

I really love the balance of instrumental and lyrical portions. My foot was tapping along the whole time, much to the annoyance of the other patrons in the library, I'm sure. Thank you for sharing. I look forward to listening to your next projects.

[@Ratatatatatouille]

Great album! I feel like a little creature in my own video game world :)

[@fromgy6105]

I'm barely a couple of songs into this album, and I'm already totally in love!! The sound is simultaneously fresh green and y2k clear blue. I especially love how the lyrics sound in Stray! How did you do them?

[@maddyortega9195]

I LOVE IT I LOVE THE ARTWORK PERFECT FOR A MORNING ONLINE SCROLL

[@herettahuston9457]

This is inspiring me to make music again

[@AwoogaWolf]

yeah this is really good

[@tottomori]

thank you :))

[@Iamwealthyhealthyandbossy]

Awesome stuff. Saving playlist for the mundane, grey, boring days. The mood is all very unique and still mesh together in one album. You should play your album at a cafe, store popup & convention fair.

[@tottomori]

Ohhh great idea! I have a place in mind now that you say that, thank you for the suggestion!

[@Iamwealthyhealthyandbossy]

@@tottomori Yeah I can see people use your music for gaming, streaming, animations, vlogs, instagram/tiktok, and films. Maybe try to collaborate with other influencers. :) You're using their audience to listen to your work.

Reminds me of listening to John Peels Music in the 80s. Great stuff!

[@tottomori]

what a comparison! thank you :)

[@Gruesome420]

This is such a fun and serene album to listen to while i watch the river flow in the park. There seems to be so much charm and optimism, while still feeling pensive and thoughtful. I dig it, man! Lets hope others get to experience this.

[@Gruesome420]

HOLD UP HOLD UP you're the dream merchant guy!!! That's awesome, I knew your name sounded familiar! I can't believe I didn't realize earlier lol

[@ponyman13]

I've been listening to this on repeat. Would love it on vinyl. Thanks!

[@Phanthalaimon]

OMG THIS IS MY NEW FAVOURITE LITTLE SECRET TREASURE ❤ Some parts remind me of InLoveWithAGhost

[@seagoat8509]

[@andrewpirooz8873]

Non snow forcast is an absolutely heavenly atmosphere. Reminds me of Röyksopp's "Remind Me." You have a very popular album on your hands. Thanks for making it!

[@Rob-gx7rx]

great stuff. reminded me of some of the works by "secret chiefs 3", but without the blistering death metal sections. well done and thank you

[@jexminnn4239]

Wait you made this whole album from music to drawinggs what? I really am in love with this, I keep coming back to this video!
