Plus, first time in digital waves.
Ongakushitsu
Double LP version. Aki Tsuyuko may be best known on this side of the planet as the voice for Nobukazu Takemura, but she has been making her own music quietly and unassumingly for the last few years. Tsuyuko's own music is subdued, and more introspective that what is expected from the current generation of Japanese electronic music.Instead of the sample-crazed, cartoon-pitched high speed cacophony of say, someone like Space Ponch, the sound of Ongakushitsu is rooted in more organic sounds. Fender…

Rare Ravers
LP version. "Disguised as the meandering outpourings of vacant thought and activity dialed simultaneously from zero and ten. Formed in the cauldron of a fevered mistake resolute. Surrounded by ignorance, dis-interest, and the attention of the carefully self-selected. Recorded and burned through a thousand galaxies of dust and doubt and endless infinite wonder, transforming both time and space. Forever exiled to the very bottom of the world to reflect on the struggling desperate pile above. Recog…
Explosion

This killer Italian library album by Luciano 'Arawak' Simoncini was only ever released on the elusive Orrery Records label, and is now very hard to find.

Tracks includes the driving cosmic funk Hardware with sharp hip-hop breaks and spaced-out abstract synth keys. Kangoroo Court is an even better alternati…

Basho was particularly entranced by the raga form which is apparent …
