Notes on this selection:

Why did it take so long? Well, that’s simply because I had no energy reserved for anything other than work. It’s also why I don’t blog, (or do particularly anything at all lately). This selection was actually made months ago, and left sitting in my iTunes as a playlist, but finally I’ve gotten around to podcasting it up. So I hope you enjoy it, and someday in the future I’m sure my podcasting will continue somewhere / in some form. I think I could be interested in doing collaborative selections with outstanding individuals.

Spoil / トップダウン
Gregory Issacs / Someone Con The Don
Aoki Takamasa / 27th
Spoil / (株)
電気グルーヴxスチャダラパー / 羊たちのエレジー

Mantler / Togethernest
Victor Vaughn / Let Me Watch / Feat. Apani B-Fly Mcee
Arthur Russell / My Tiger, My Timing
Daniel Lanois / Fire
To Rococo Rot / Tal
Edan / Run That Shit!

Notes on this selection:

1. A new Japanese band, and this album was produced by Kuchiroro. That’s about all I can say. Nice stuff on an eccentric electro tip. This is just an interlude of sorts.

2. This is apparently from an album of his called Under The Bridge, which I can’t seem to find any reference to anywhere.

3. From his new album Parabolica, it’s almost like a b-side to the track 26th Floor, from the Aoki Takamasa + Tujiko Noriko album.

4. A real hit from the aforementioned Spoil album.

5. It’s a Tokyo meets the American wild west rap (if you can imagine that) from the collaboration album of Denki Groove and スチャダラパー.

6. Brilliant O.Lamm track, one of my favorites from his new one, Monolith.

7. This just dropped literally a few days ago. Survival Seven is Riow Arai’s 7th full length album, and here is a really nice selection from it. The music video I did for the single Death Breaks is included (a bit lo-res) on the enhanced CD.

8. 9. and 10. Three short cuts by J Dilla, who I was just introduced to (thank you to California Alex).

11. I used to listen to this CD over and over and over in my car rides to school during my last term at ACCD. At that point it was brand new, and at this point it’s still every bit as charming with a soft rolling advance of tender melancholy mixed with R&B and electro. Brilliance courtesy of Mantler, so good its been in this podcast twice!

12. There couldn’t be a more perfect rap song, honestly. Engaging on so many levels.

13. I couldn’t resist. Another one from Arthur Russell. You can get this on Another Thought if interested. Of course every other song is great too.

14. This one gives me the chills, my tremolo.

15. Moist, acoustic-electronic warmth.

16. If this doesn’t have you sore with laughter by the end, well… I just don’t know if we can remain friends.

Ike Yard / NCR
Sulumi / Imuluk
Planningtorock / Have It All
Cornelius / Breezin'

Notes on this selection:

1. This is fairly new from OOIOO, a band led by Yoshimi of Boredoms. I had no idea, but apparently this stuff makes its way outside of Japan and is fairly popular. I saw the album displayed prominently in Other Music on my recent visit to New York.

2. Maki, you are an otaku.

3. Friends of mine making really good, very listenable J hip-hop without any BS American / gangster aspirations.

4. This is a few months old too, a debut album from this band on Sonig featuring Illreme on most of the tracks. “Sonig + Illreme” gives a pretty apt description of the sound. Very cute and rather strange.

5. Really hot cut featuring Edan (who my roomate introduced me too and who is fucking genius) and Mr. Lif from Cut Chemist’s new album.

6. A friend of my girlfriend’s who made a pretty interesting album.

7. Short and sweet, from OutKast’s latest.

8. I should dedicate a whole podcast to Arthur Russell. Quickly becoming one of my favorite artists. This was released recently by Audika.

9. What all indie music since aspires to, perhaps without even knowing it. Made in 1979.

10. Metalchicks!

11. Fairly unknown (I think) band of Art School (RISD?) kids in the New York underground around the time I was born.

12. Nice stuff coming from China! Reminds me of a lot my favorite music from my late teens. What a contrast to the previous song ahaha.

13. Crazy band from Chicks On Speed label.

14. From the forthcoming Cornelius album, which I won’t say too much about... just wait for it!

Apeiron / Crepitation
Mr. Lif / Success
Spencer Doran / Jumper / Everybody
Geskia / Were Saw

Notes on this selection:

1. If you don’t enjoy this much at first, just listen again and again.

2. Of Montreal is a really hit and miss band for me but I really like this one.

3. Perhaps my favorite from his last album. Try not to cry though.

4. From 1972’s #1 Record.

5. One of the only songs I actually enjoy from Trout Mask Replica at this point.

6. A really nice one from her last album, Slow Killer.

7. My favorite track from their new album.

8. I finally got the new Lansing-Dreiden album.

9. From Sign ‘O’ The Times.

10. Madonna cover from Taeji Sawai.

11. The most abstract cut from Bitches Without Britches.

12. A choice song from this compilation. I’d very much like the full-length from this band.

13. A personal favorite from Mr. Lif.

14. From the forthcoming Spencer Doran album, Puzzles. Supposedly on Eastern Developments.

15. A talented Japanese trackmaker who hasn’t actually released anything that I’m aware of.

Notes on this selection:

1. From the 1981 album Magnetic Fields.

2. Excellent Finnish band on the Fonal label.

3. Beatles cover from Stereo Total. From My Melody.

4. From Peeping Tom: A pop music experiment from genius Mike Patton.

5. Hahahahahah.

6. Ahahahahahaha.

7. Luke Vibert’s disco alter-ego.

8. From a CD-R I got DJing at Comainu’s show where Jimanica opened.

9. From the gorgeous album White Hats, by Niobe. Recently released on Tomlab.

10. A twelve minute song of the same two chords over and over that never gets boring. Amazing.

11. Performance art (e.g. live) version from Stop Making Sense.

12. Genius.

13. Hard to define but impressive collaboration album from Hypo & EDH. From Active Suspension. Also, watch a video here.

Dinosaur Jr. / Thumb
Michael Jackson / Another Part Of Me

Notes on this selection:

1. Fluttery, gentle, introductory Dabrye song from One/Three

2. I’ve been coming back to this song for years, and it never fails to impress. I won’t even try to describe the images this song conjures in the mind, though I will say that said mental pictures could exist only in an imagined (as opposed to the real) Tokyo, and they are impossibly glamourous and filmic in the grandest sense of the word. From The Wayward Bus.

3. I don’t know where I got this song, but I’ve had it for a very long time. The story of how Autechre came to reinterpret a Japanese children’s song I don’t suppose I will ever know.

4. Thanks to Sun for this addictive Screwed and Choppped track.

5. Thanks to Gino for this one. I haven’t heard any of his songs (Dykehouse) besides this one, but I am under the impression that they are nothing like this. This song is about fucking and it makes me laugh. Very catchy. From Ghostly International’s Idol Tryouts compilation.

6. Absurdly cute, cut-up, and energetic. It will make you dance. Good album Wow Twist that just came out a couple months ago. Thanks to supreme tastemaker Digiki for the recommend.

7. The entire purpose of Britney Spears’ existence, life, and music career was to inspire this song. The culmination of everything she’s ever done is in this perfect cover by eccentric Japanese noise artist Government Alpha. Thank you Franck for releasing this.

8. Infallible Prince song from the Batman soundtrack. Somehow it fits nicely next to the Britney interpretation.

9. Taking a break with this solemn, textural, beautiful Gastr Del Sol song from perhaps their most standout album (and even featuring some electronics by Oval), Camofleur. Wait for the vocal in the conclusion.

10. Nice pop song from The Konki Duet’s debut, Il Fait Tout Gris. I’d like to know who specifcally the lyrics are about.

11. My best friend Alex gave me this song, saying something like it was the most depressing, or disturbing song ever. This is mostly due to its context in the film Silence Of The Lambs. To quote a reviewer from RYM: “The song's lyrics deal with its heartbroken protagonist's decision to transcend the narrow boundaries of her own sad existence and “fly over” the horses that bind her to the mortal coil.”

12. An obvious selection, but still fucking awesome. No introduction needed.

13. To be perfectly honest, this probably outshines every other track in here by about 500 percent. One of the most perfect songs I can think of. From This Year’s Model.

14. Uncharacteristically positive Big Star song. Still, the optimism is most definitely a front. I guess that’s what makes it great.

15. I dont’t know shit about Dinosaur Jr.

16. In case you were wondering, you have just given the gift to the Supreme Leader, and you’re feeling really really great.

Motocompo / www.motocompo.com
DMX Krew / You Can’t Hide Your Love (AFX Remix)
Doppelzimmers / In The City
Recoil / The Defector

Notes on this selection:

1. I love it when The 6ths (or The Magnetic Fields for that matter) get all synthy.

2. Sweet 80’s Ministry song from Twitch.

3. From a few years ago, I bought his Flyrec album after hearing this track.

4. I’ve been listening to Prince (and feeling erotic) since his new album came out (tho this track is not from it). It’s about time I meet a girl like Nikki.

5. Last year’s My Morning Jacket album, Z, is really really solid. There are a whole lot of other selections I could have picked off it (Off The Record, Gideon, Wordless Chorus...), but I picked this for its large amount of energy conveyed in a brief amount of time.

6. Amazing and amazingly real rapper from Seattle / Portland, USA who came to Japan a few months ago. This comes from another great album. Seriously tons of great, smart, but accessible tracks and fun to be had on Sleep’s Christopher.

7. Cool and retro-sounding Zongamin song. I don’t know much about him, though.

8. A genius track, I think, by a very hard to classify artist called Passage who’s album is on Anticon. It starts and ends with samples of Dr. Laura, has an amazing change-up half way through bridging the hardcore indie-punk yelling of the first half with the following more rap-like verse, and with a whole lot of brilliantly twisted and hard to understand lyrics in-between. And this all happens in two and a half minutes.

9. Lo-Fi-Fnk song that will make you want to dance. Thanks to my friend Sun.

10. My favorite song so far from the new Flaming Lips album, though admittedly I haven’t yet given it the time it deserves.

11. I put this on because I think its really conceptual for a hip-hop track, but even more so because of the mention of particular streets of Pasadena--We was right between Fair Oaks and Lake, tryin’ a catch us a lunch break(!!!)--haha. なつかしい!!!

12. I met Dr. Usui of Motocompo a few weeks ago, subsequently saw his live show, which was really really excellent, and bought a couple of albums. There seems to be a tradition lately of bands making songs out of URL callouts (the most familiar to me being www.hifana.com from Hifana’s Channel H), but this supercute one from 2000 is six years ahead of its time.

13. Nostalgic AFX remix of DMX Krew’s You Can’t Hide Your Love from the album Fresh. Motocompo and DMX Krew kind of have a lot in common.

14. Coming off a 2-disc set called Billboard Head Soup from Sonore, which I seriously cannot rave about enough, this song I think is in German, and I know it has to be a cover of some major Billboard hit (as that’s the concept of the compilation), though it might has well be completely new to me.

15. I used to love this 1992 song from Alan Wilder’s Recoil. And it’s still pretty fresh today.

Wire / The 15th
Autechre / Laughing Quarter
King Crimson / I Talk To The Wind

Notes on this selection:

1. Randomly found this silly song about mixi linked from Kissui.net. As far as I can tell it was made by this band called Tenchu.

2. This song takes me back to this one time in like 1999 when I was driving from OC to LA to see a Mouse On Mars show while listening to it. The album its from is called Fucking Consumer, and I remember there is also a track on there that sampled Blue Velvet (the film).

3. Fishmans is a great reggae / dub-ish, wonderfully melodic and positive sounding Japanese band. This song has been stuck in my head all week.

4. Submarine are some really nice kids from Okinawa. This song is super-indie, innocent, and well, kind of heartwarming really.

5. Bobby Birdman I found from Fryk Beat. I really want to buy his albums but I'm too lazy to initiate any transactions involving the interaction of the internet with the physical world.

6. I dont really know much about Why? but I like this song, and the few others I have. This is from a new album called Elephant Eyelash.

7. なのるなもない (nanorunamonai) is one half of Origami. Thanks to my homeboy Kei for this album which I should have gotten a long time ago.

8. Nice song from Damien Jurado’s Rehearsals For Departure.

9. Heartfelt and intimate song by Bogdan Raczynski. Its the sixth song on the album, which has the same name as the album, on which all the songs have the same name (I think it’s about obsession).

10. The “single” from Xiu Xiu’s album La Forêt.

11. Fucking good song from Wire’s 154 album.

12. Lengthy, fucked up crunchy / hip-hop / melodic shit from Autechre’s Envane EP that I used to love so much (and still do).

13. Just got this 1969 super art-rock debut album In The Court Of The Crimson King on my stopover in socal from my best friend Alex. What a beautiful album and song this is.

イルリメ / Urarasama
John Frusciante / Walls

Lansing-Dreiden / Spectrum Of Vapor
Satanicpornocultshop / Get Your Freak On
Kahimi Karie / Still Be Your Girl
Ryoji Ikeda and Carsten Nikolai / C6
My Bloody Valentine / Swallow
Nuno Canavarro / 05

Notes on this selection:

1. From the insane MC イルリメ (illreme) off of his www.illreme.com album. I had been meaning to buy his material, and then luckily a few weeks ago the graphic design team Illdozer, who designed the album’s jacket, came by our office and gave it to me for free. Horay!

2. Yes, there was a John Frusciante song in my previous podcast. This one is so different, and I have come to like him so much I wanted to include it. If you like Kid A, or any of that pop / rock meets indie-electronica stuff (like perhaps The Postal Service, who I completely loathe) you need to listen to this song and get schooled by Frusciante’s raw energy and incredible conveyance of emotion with an absolute bare minimum of instrumentation and song structure.

3. This song is taken from the Monika Force compilation from Monika. Apparently The Burka Band is made up entirely of Afghani girls, which will make a lot of sense once you hear the song (and then read this).

4. I know next to nothing about Leonard Cohen but I love this song from New Skin for the Old Ceremony. Thank’s Alex (my roommate that is, not to be confused with my best friend in CA).

5. The first track on Eno’s Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy). A great album (and song).

6. Probably my favorite song from Never For Ever, listeners of this podcast are lucky I don’t just go and make an entire Kate Bush only episode at this point (Hey, that sounds like a good idea).

7. A track from Tago Mago that is pretty much as close as Can gets to a pop song. Gets really exciting with Damo Suzuki’s psychedelic vocal at the end.

8. Thanks to Alex again for introducing me to Lansing-Drieden, whose company philosophy is aptly described on their website.

9. A fucked up cover of the Missy Elliott track by Satanicpornocultshop. So good.

10. I added this old Kahimi Karie song in because I thought this podcast was a bit lacking in kawaii factor.

11. And perhaps completely offsetting it, I’d describe this as a raw sonic sculpture (that’s surprisingly listenable) from Ryoji Ikeda and Carsten Nikolai.

12. A beautiful, textural, harmonic song from MBV’s Tremolo EP.

13. I was just introduced to Nuno Canavarro recently. Almost nothing is known about him / it, and the record was released inexplicably in 1988. It’s pretty much perfect, and is full of wonderful songs, hearing any one of which conjures up examples of similar ideas, less well-executed in contemporaries from labels like Mego, Sonig, or even Tomlab and Morr Music. Seems to be a seminal album that’s influenced everything without anyone actually hearing of it.

志人 / 玉兎 / Fuji Classics
Anne Laplantine / Video Game
Pia Fraus / Deep Purple Girl
Piana / Snow Bird
Aoki Takamasa + Tujiko Noriko / Vinyl Words
A Hawk and a Hacksaw / Portland Town

Notes on this selection:

1. A small selection from the ever-mad Venetian Snares’ newest album Rossz Csillag Alatt Született which I picked up from Aquarius Records on my visit to California in Dec / Jan. You’d think his music would start to get repetitive or boring with the pace of his releases, but it doesn’t, honestly. As can be said of many of his songs, this is the only song of his which sounds like this.

2. If there was a single from this Music A.M. album, A Heart & Two Stars, this would be it. I first heard Music A.M. via the excellent Quartermass site.

3. Sketch Show is Yukihiro Takahashi and Haruomi Hosono, formerly of YMO fame. This is a nice song from Loophole mixing male / female vocals and Japanese / English / some-unidentified-Scandinavian-language. This song (and this album...this whole group in fact) reminds me of Fukuoka, as I was traveling there at the time when Kenji bought the album and gave it to me.

4. Nice song from Broadcast’s newest album, Tender Buttons. The album is really solid (like all their albums).

5. This is taken from Luke Vibert’s lovely disco revival record, Kerrier District from a couple years ago on Rephlex.

6. I honestly don’t know much about this band キセル, though their music is quite beautiful and kind of reminds me of Shugo Tokumaru. I should actually be saying that Shugo’s music reminds me of them of course, as their discography goes back to 2001, though I just heard them last year. This is the title track from 近未来 (Kinmirai, near future), which came out in 2002.

7. Lately I’ve been totally absorbed by the two John Frusciante albums I have, Curtains and Shadows Collide With People. This is a great song from the former, released almost exactly 1 year ago.

8. I mentioned 志人 (Shibito)’s new solo album on this blog recently. This is one of my favorite songs from it.

9. This is a song by Anne Laplantine from the album Nordheim with a nostaligic lo-fi videogame aesthetic.

10. I mentioned Pia Fraus on this blog as well when I first heard them. Of all the contemporary bands trying to bring back shoegazer (whether intentionally or not) they are easily the best in my opinion. This was initially one of my favorite songs from Sailing on a Grapefruit Lake, a compilation, and Japan only release.

11. Maybe I’ve been mentioning Piana too often lately. I guess its because I have seen her live twice in the last couple months, most recently this past week. This song is the title track from her first album, Snow Bird. If you read Japanese and follow her blog, you can quite easily keep up with her career, which seems qutie meteoric lately.

12. Of course I eventually had to introduce something from this album, last year’s collaboration between Tujiko Noriko and Aoki Takamasa. While I don’t like this album nearly as much as RATN’s J there are a couple really nice songs, and this is one of them.

13. Admiteddly, I know nothing about this band. I grabbed this song off the latest Leaf compilation double album, Check the Water, as it really stood out to me for it’s narrative. A bit of a dark note to end this mix on.

Notes on this selection:

1. Tanaka Akira: I found this artist through Tatsuya. He’s worked a lot with another Japanese band called Asana, and has remixes from notable artists like Yoshihiro Hanno, Riow Arai, among others.

2. Broken Social Scene: One of my favorite songs from their new album which I’m sure everyone already has.

3. Deleware: A wonderful song by Japanese design / music collective (quite well-known for their bitmap graphics). I don’t even remember where I found this song, I think it might have been through Momus’ Click Opera.

4. Max Tundra: An utterly brilliant track from the brilliant album Mastered by Guy at The Exchange, that sadly many people probably don’t know about. This was introduced to me by friend and W+K art director woog two or so years ago.

5. Beautiful and subtle song from their new and excellent album Feels.

6. Prefab Sprout is an addictive and eccentric 80’s British pop band I first heard of from Sun.

7. Gutevolk: I think I’ve mentioned her before, a quirky and soft Japanese female artist released stateside by 12k’s Happy. This is my favorite song from her new mini-album, Twinkle.

8. A recent release from Mitchell Akiyama’s (who is in Désormais) Montreal label Intr_version. Dead Letters to Lost Friends is their third album and this is the first vocal track I have heard of theirs.

9. Bochum Welt: This is a blast from my past from Desktop Robotics, a classic 1997 EP that takes me back to highschool days. This is from Aphex and Grant’s Rephlex label, He has a new album available from Darla, which I have not yet heard.

10. Janet: I found this album for 100 yen a few weeks ago and quickly bought it. It’s quite entertaining as a pop concept album featuring cutting edge 1989 production.

11. Orga: Some Japanese kid cracked the code: Precisely how to make music that sounds like 2000-era Prefuse 73. If you didn’t get enough then, you’ll like this. If not, it’s an amusement, and maybe his next release will be a bit more original. There are some interesting videos on the website edited to his music.

12. Arisa: If only there were more J-pop tracks that sounded like this (I’m quite sure there aren’t, and if anyone has the wares to convince me otherwise please let me know). From the みんな大好き塊魂 game soundtrack.

13. Sharks Keep Moving: Shamefully I used this short song as an instrumental interlude to serve the podcast, but in a fair world I would have used more of a proper song from this excellent Pacific Northwest indie band.

14. Riow Arai: The last track from his 1998 album Circuit ‘72. I love this song which makes for a subdued conclusion to the album.
