Opening with the mellow groove “Synchronize Vibration” (sample_1)—which could be seen as a sequel to Roy Ayers’ anthem “Everybody Loves The Sunshine” (’76)—this album treats listeners to eight tracks of exquisite mellow jazz-funk that shows absolutely no signs of slowing down.

Takashi Kokubo — one of Japan's foremost environmental music composers and sound designers, known for creating the Emergency Earthquake Alert tone and the payment confirmation sound for iD — built this album from natural sounds he captured using Cyberphonic technology in the Ion Forest of Mukawa Village, Yamanashi Prefecture. Aiming for the sweet s ...Read morepot exactly between music composed by a musician for listening pleasure and the sounds of nature itself, he pursued a "soundscape" whose comfort goes on forever. Three tracks are included: 1. "Awakening of the Forest" (sample 1), 2. "Memories of Summer" (sample 2), and 3. "The Distant Blue Star" (sample 3).
Using headphones brings out even more of the immersive sound of the Cyberphonic (three-dimensional ultra-acoustic) system employed here. Composed according to the 1/f fluctuation theory of rhythms found in the natural world — gentle breezes, shifting sunlight — the record was made with the wish that listeners, worn down by the relentless pace of modern life, might occasionally set themselves down within a slowly flowing soundscape. It reigns as a masterpiece of Japanese environmental music, new age, and ambient: calm, gentle, richly sensitive, and offering a listening experience much like forest bathing.
What's more, this CD is said to be the world's first to capture "high-frequency noise" (the noise abundant in natural sounds that stimulates the cerebrum and relaxes the listener), making it a recording that conveys an analog-like warmth despite being a CD.

The music on Horse Lords’ *Demand to Be Taken to Heaven Alive!* is incredibly intricate, yet at the same time possesses a deeply human warmth. The 12 tracks are intricately interwoven in multiple layers, unfolding with complexity in both timbre and rhythm. Moiré-like interactions and repetitive patterns engage both the mind and the body, creating a ...Read more labyrinth of countless sounds while maintaining an irresistible groove.
A groundbreaking work that further expands the band’s unique musical language cultivated over many years, *Demand to Be Taken to Heaven Alive!* aims to transport listeners into a spiritual, ecstatic, and utopian sonic space. (From the press release)

M. Sage is a musician, intermedia artist and recording engineer (as well as a producer, publisher, teacher, partner and parent).

Driven by a perfectionist sensibility in which a piece is only done when it's truly finished, he spent an unusual five years — unusual for such a prolific artist — patiently designing "Paradise Crick," resulting in a fascinating, singular and utterly convincing work that fuses the natural and man-made worlds into something like a fantasy. A masterpiece. (Original Japanese text by AYAM)

Tokiyo Ooto—a musician from Osaka who has performed with And Summer Club and the Michinori Toyota Band—and Orhythmo, another Osaka-based artist with a background in hardcore, Orhythmo, formed in 2023. The project began when Ooto’s creative spirit was sparked by listening to cassette tapes of old British nursery rhymes; he then approached Orhythmo a ...Read mores the key collaborator to bring his vision to life.
The combination of Ooto—who plays bedroom music utilizing electric guitar loop effects in his solo work—and Orhythmo, who excels at drone-style electric bass playing that seems to sink into infinity, held great potential from the start. This deliberate duo adopted the concept of “lullabies for adults” and and independently released their first album, *If All The World Were Paper* (2024), recorded in one take at LM Studio in Osaka. Their second album, *Play Nursery Rhymes and Children's Songs*, was created with the vision of publishing a picture book, further developing and refining the unique world they have crafted into a more intricate soundscape. Two of the four tracks are new recordings featuring the Shiga Prefecture lullaby “Nennen Mori no” and the masterpiece “Buranko” (lyrics by Masuyo Tsuzuki, music by Yasushi Akutagawa), while the other two tracks are reworked versions of the British folk songs “Hey Diddle Diddle” and “There Was an Old Woman.” Through *Play…*, Tokiyo Ooto and Orhythmo use highly contemporary methods to drag out the remnants of the mythical nature of songs—which must have been inherently contained within them but were lost over the course of history—from the depths where they have sunk beneath their symbols, transforming them into allegorical forms and presenting them to us. Recording, mixing, and mastering were handled by Ippei Suda of LM Studio, with artwork by Yoshikazu Ano.

Neither jazz nor club music—this transcendent DJ mix awakens listeners through “sound” itself!

“MPS? I’ve never heard of it—could you send me some tracks?”—It all started with this single line, and he went on to listen to every one of the roughly 100 CDs to select tracks and structure the mix. This live DJ mix was recorded while he boldly tackled a session using the SirenMachine he acquired last year. “An absolutely incredible recording of a human performance. It’s on a level worthy of being designated a World Heritage Site. Is this jazz—which even evokes a psychedelic awakening—the very essence of the universe? MPS! A wonderful experience,” says HIKARU himself. This album was born from that profound impact. It’s neither jazz nor club music—it’s a mind-blowing DJ mix that awakens listeners through “sound” itself.

Interspersed with DJ sets by Park Daham, this was an endurance live set from YPY featuring modular synths and more, plus a session with cellist Hiroki Nakagawa, his partner in KAKUHAN, and finally a return to YPY's roots with a set using a cassette MTR.

All are vocal songs, performed mainly with Arthur Russell's own cello and guests, and all are full of Arthur Russell's charm as a singer.

This audio recording was discovered on a tape unearthed by Toshi Ichiyanagi at his home; it is a live recording of a concert performed in 1967 at Hope College in Michigan by Cage, David Tudor, Toshi Ichiyanagi, and others.

The mid-1960s were a time when Cage and Tudor were in the midst of developing electrically amplified performance sounds ...Read more, and at this Hope College concert as well, deafening sounds were unleashed through their relentless amplified performance techniques. Lucier’s *Music for a Solo Performer* (1965) is the earliest recording available today relative to its year of composition, and it is being released to the world for the first time. This 1967 version, which features the Cage school’s electrical realization techniques and is entirely different in character from the one released by Lucier and Pauline Oliveros on Lovely Music in 1982, is a mass of sounds devoid of any intelligible meaning—unless one is familiar with the context, it might sound like nothing more than road construction in the neighborhood. The live performance of “Brainwaves” is handled by the masterful Tudor.

Toshi Ichiyanagi’s “Appearance” (1967) was his latest composition at the time, published as the lead article in the renowned *Source Magazine*; Cage himself participated in this explosive performance, which blended live electronics with acoustic instruments. While the performance itself is identical to the version released by Omega Point in 2006, the source tape used for this release is believed to be the master tape; it exhibits significantly higher linearity and substantially improved sound quality. It is also an extended version that includes audience reactions, which were not included in the 2006 edition.

This release includes a foreword by Omega Point (explaining the circumstances surrounding the discovery of the tape), a reprint of Toshi Ichiyanagi’s 2006 commentary on “Appearance,” and a commentary by sound artist Minoru Sato, a scholar of Lucier’s work who was acquainted with the composer during his lifetime.

Throughout the album, her wordless vocals are used as elements of melody and texture. *Kuma-chan Seal* could be described as bedroom pop filtered through techno, ambient, and the New Age revival; however, the album showcases Ojima’s unique worldview—which breaks away from convention—in two tracks: the “home disco” track “Atsumono” (sample_3), featured toward the end of the album, which layers distorted sounds over a four-on-the-floor beat, and the doo-wop-flavored pseudo-reggae track “TINYCELL” (sample_3)—which is somewhat reminiscent of the British singer Brenda Ray—showcase Ojima’s unique worldview that defies conventional expectations.

〜まるで何世代にも渡って受け継がれてきた親しみのある歌声のよう〜
ジャズとモンゴル伝統音楽のエレガントな融合

夕暮れ時のほんの一瞬、空が鮮やかな琥珀色に染まる。ドラマチックな色彩の輝き、昼と夜の両方に属する瞬間。モンゴル生まれでミュンヘンを拠点に活動するシンガー・ソングライター、エンジのニューアルバム『Sonor』は、この鮮やかで儚い世界の中で作られました。

賞賛の嵐を浴びた前2作『Ursgal』（2021年）と『Ulaan』（2023年）に続く4thアルバム。本作は、エンジの個人的な進化と、モンゴルとドイツ、2つの世界の間で生きることに伴う複雑な感情の反映です。このアルバムのテーマは、文化の狭間にある居場所のない感覚を中心に展 ...Read more (サイトウ)開されますが、それは対立の原因としてではなく、成長と自己発見のための空間としてです。彼女は伝統的なモンゴルのルーツとの距離が、いかに自らのアイデンティティを形成してきたか、そして故郷に戻ることで、いかにこうした変化への意識が高まったかを探求しています。


本作において、エンジはアーティストとして進化を続け、サウンドはより流動的で親しみやすいものへと拡張しています。Elias Stemeseder （ピアノ）、Robert Landfermann（コントラバス）、Julian Sartorius（ドラム）、そして前2作でもお馴染みの、共同作曲者でもあるPaul Brändle（ギター）といった世界的に名高いジャズ・アーティストをバンドに迎え、ジャズ・スタンダード「Old Folks」を除いて全曲モンゴル語で歌われるなど、エンジの音楽的基盤は揺るぎないですが、メロディーとストーリーテリングに新たな明晰さを加えることで、より親しみやすい内容となっています。それは単にスタイルの変化というだけでなく、彼女の歌声の深化を反映したもので、深みを失うことなくアクセシビリティを受け入れ、彼女の歌がより普遍的なレベルで共鳴することを可能にしています。



『Sonor』では、モンゴルの伝統的な歌「Eejiinhee Hairaar」（「母の愛をこめて」）に新たな命を吹き込みました。日常生活に溶け込んだ音楽、何世代にも渡って受け継がれてきたメロディー、このイメージに本作の精神が凝縮されています。エンジは単に伝統を再認識しているのではなく、故郷の感覚や、遠くから見て初めてその意味がわかる小さな喜びを抽出しています。親が口ずさむ親しみのある歌のように、彼女の音楽は、ひとつの場所に縛られるのではなく、私たちを形作る感情や記憶といった「帰属」の本質をとらえています。

エンジはリスナーを彼女の経験の風景を旅する旅に誘い、文化の架け橋となり、変化を受け入れ、私たちの人生を定義する移り変わりの中に美を見出します。モンゴルとドイツ、伝統と革新の間を行き来し続ける彼女の音楽は、世界の狭間で生きることの豊かな体験と、多面的なアイデンティティを受け入れることから生まれる芸術の証です。 (サイトウ)
