A great anime soundtrack from Hiromasa Suzuki – sometimes a jazz artist, but sounding great here for the project! (Soundtracks, Japanese) LP, Vinyl record album

A nice collection of Japanese boogie tracks, with selections by Nobuo Yagi, Nobuyuki Shimizu, Piper, Haruko Kuwana, Aru Takamura, Hitomi Tohyama, Honma Express, Colored Music, Shohjo-Tai & Red Bus St Project, Yumi Murata, Eri Ohno, Minnie, and Shoody. CD

A beautiful Japanese ambient session from the 80s – one of a rare breed of records issued by the Misawa Home Institute Of Research – partly as a project to integrate music and sound into everyday residential life! Hiroshi Yoshimura begins the set with one long track, the moves into shorter melodies, before then going into another long track in the middle – all to create this beautiful shifting soundscape that echoes some acoustic elements amidst a gentler, organic electronic backdrop. There's a real sense of poetry to the record, which is gently compelling throughout – on titles that include "Time After Time", "Something Blue", "Surround", "Water Planet", and "Time Forest". CD
