Damu The Fudgemunk「How It Should Sound Volume 1 & 2」

Beat　collection by Washington DC producer. I'd like to not only stones throw fans but also people who were fascinated by play of Japanese dj Killer-bong at Harukaze festival listen to.

Weedruid「The Last Houdini Seance」

German doom metal formed just last year. Instrumental doom by dirty sounds and heavy riff is already distinctive.

Muslimgauze「Dome Of The Rock」

Arabic ambient dub which middle-eastern percussion is mixed on slow&hard beat. One and only.

Xoki & Hieronymus「Reggaeparty」

Reggae mix by spirited Danish dub producers. It's different from own tracks which has a feeling of tension, the atmosphere we can relax is comfortable.

Moodymann「Sloppy Cosmic」

Funkadelic cover by veteran Detroit producer is melancholy psychedelic blues. Great.

Vinyl Experience (9) The youth without a turntable

Text:Fumimasa Hori

Although I think you can know the popularity for vinyl among the youth in a previous article, you may be surprised if you know the fact that the youth don’t have a turntable or a record player reach for vinyl. It was appeared on an article of Independent that youth without a turntable buy vinyl. I quote a statement by Gennaro Castaldo, HMV spokesman.

Tlebron「Fuck yo couch」

Stoner hiphop which the lazy atmosphere is comfortable. I'd also like to Anticon fans listen to this.

Moss「The Adept」

Purgatory doom metal which is similar to ”Wizards of gore" by Electric Wizard.

The first EP by one of the most important Doom Metal band in the world which is a match for Electric Wizard. I'm looking forward to listening to their new work.

James Din A4「Untitled」

Detroitish house by a producer whose remix work by Farben is popular. Moodymann fans must listen to.

Haikai No Ku「Blue At Noon」

UK loud psychedelic rock Fushitsusha fans must listen to. We never miss the activity of Mike Vest, a guitarist of this group.

Jambinai「Connection」

Minimal Rock with kayagum or haegum by Korean instrumental group. The method of mixing traditional music of own country with modern rock in high dimension reminds me "Roots" by Sepultura.

New Nambu (6)

Morioka Now 4 “Still, Osamu Kanno! (upper) ”

<Tom Kora, a little>

Perhaps, some people seem to call or read Osamu Kanno as “Shu Kannno”, so I must rewrite Osamu Kanno is right. It’s no wrong because Kanno himself says so. Well, it’s interesting if he makes wrong. In fact, although I’d like to introduce pieces heard or written from Kanno himself or the paragraph for his exhibition, now I’d like to introduce mainly the free jazz oriented quartet or trio since 1995. Kanno himself talked about sessions with a lot of musicians or invitations to Japan in “Pink head” one of his many works (his most works are comics, but only this is an essay). Among them, person I was involved in and Kanno also collaborated was Peter Kowald and Tom Cora. 

「Thoabath (live) @ Shirley Temple of Doom 3.15.2014」

Unidentifiable Noise/Industrial I want people who like electronic music by Keiji Haino listen to.

Low Jack「Ether & Crac Mix (Radio Campus Paris)」

Experimental mix by French young DJ. He utilizes from Shamanic percussion to Noisy techno and creates completely his own world.

Eludem「clapseason volumen.sleep」

Especial unique mix which is invoked the method of chopped&screwed, but also creates the balearic atmosphere. Person who likes hiphop mix by DJ Kensei must listen to.

Alumbrados「Principium I」

Psychedelic raga rock by Gibbons Brothers of Bardo Pond. The sublime music I want Angus Maclise or Bong fans listen to.

AKA「Skip Away」

Indonesian heavy psyche which features very distorted fuzz guitar. Extremely powerful.

Cult of Occult「Children Of the Grave」

The cutting-edge French doom metal group covers the classic doom metal number as everyone knows. The supreme doom metal Electric Wizard "Supercoven" fans must listen to.

Polmo Polpo「Kiss Me Again and Again」

The rework of Dinosaur L is like funk-oriented Terry Riley. You must get addicted to minimal groove by human power.

Optical Frameworks「Ode for Wooden Piano」

Onkyo/ambient put together the sound of under water and so on recorded by field recordings with reel-to-reel tape. Please listen to by a headphone and immerse in the minute and deep sonic.

Clouds「Rest of the Cycle」

Dark ambient dubstep which matches midnight. I want Aphex Twin fans to listen to.

Kuniyuki Takahashi「All These Things (Theo Parrish Rmx) 」

Clear female vocal & minimal beat which beat out the same rhythm continuously. This is deep house.

Porter Ricks「Port Gentil」

Tranquil, but powerful ambient minimal dub as if it recalls the memory when you were an unborn child. Beautiful.

El Mahdy Jr & Gulls「Disco Maghreb」

Psychedelic Dub Funk which sampled Rai, Algerien pop music. I recommend to Badawi fans.

Xoki「A forest dub」

Attack like a clap of thunder are resounding in slow rhythm. Too dope Danish dub.

Profound sonic leaded by bass sitar, surbahar. Drone/Ambient fans should listen to this.
   

Virginia Genta (Jooklo Duo) interview Part2

Interviewer:Fumimasa Hori

― I don't know why, but it was decided that both artists who I interviewed would come to Japan immediately after interview. So, I'm looking forward to watching your performance in Japan soon! Is there Japanese musicians you want to play together? Well, how was the collaboration with Takehisa Kosugi? Just as you say, we can find a point in common among music in the world. For example, It is said that Enka (Japanese old popular songs) and Ethiopian music are really resembled. I think it's important to seek the Universal Sound too. But, I also think it's important to seek the sound peculiar to the local simultaneously. Have you think to play the sound peculiar to Italy？

Dub Gabriel「2nd Coming Of The Urban Mystic」

Encounter with dub and Indian music open up new world of sound. Muslimgauze fans must listen to this.

Pocahaunted「Riddim Queen」

Psychedelic drone dub which mind-blowing female voice is echoing. I recommend Mauve Sideshaw or Marina Rosenfeld fan.
