the new album from tycho!

cd powder is an alchemist of time. her ceremonious dj sets invite listeners and dancers to extend their imaginations to abstracted spaces, while allowing the body to vessel the voyage in free, flowing style. playful, thoughtful, and natural without knowing, powderÕs crates encourage abandonment of arbitrary boundaries and expectations surrounding genre, movement, schedule, and societal convention to revel, spirited and harmonious, in the passage of time. momoko goto relocated from her hometown of nagasaki, japan to tokyo in 2011. this is where the story of powder, as the international dance music community knows her, begins. with the change in location came a change in lifestyle, where a balance of 9-to-5 office life and sacred, nocturnal recording sessions invited moko to reflect on musics unique ability to stop the clock and expand or shrink our sense of time.

currently the rediscovery of long forgotten japanese electronic, jazz and new age music is at a peak like never before. but although many re-issues already flood the record stores around the world: the large, diverse musical culture of japan still got some gems in store that are really missing.

all tracks are from tanakas archive (2010-2015), which were produced since he had moved his base in berlin. the idea of the dj mixing with only his own tracks has been gestating for sometime and with his trials during his dj dates in europe, south america and japan the selection of the tracks and combination has been made. the thought process of mixing his own materials could be similar to preparing for his own live set. this recording was done at this home in berlin. all tracks has been released on 12inch vinyl (snd 06.07.08 on 2017) except track 6.

it is a great album! it sounds like he had passed through my lessons. (tony allen) although i did not think deeply about it but i felt that a certain time had come for me and i decided to produce my solo album. it was 20 years since i first started playing drums and since then, out of all the brilliant artists who live in japan that i played with, i wanted to freely enlist players who i really wanted to create music with. the initial catalyst was my strong yearning, wanting to know, what sort of creativity would result, if i produced my own album.

wrwtfww & palto flats records are ecstatic to announce the highly-anticipated reissue of japanese percussionist midori takadas sought after and timeless ambient / minimal album through the looking glass, originally released in 1983 by rca japan. considered a holy grail of japanese music by many, through the looking glass is midori takadas first solo endeavor, a captivating four-song suite capturing her deep quests into traditional african and asian percussive language and exploring contemplative ambient sounds with an admirably precise use of marimba. the result is alternatively ethereal and vibrant, always precise and mesmerizing, and makes for an atmospheric masterpiece and an unparalleled sonic and spiritual experience. the fully licensed reissue is available as a single 33rpm lp and a limited 45rpm dlp, both cut directly from the original studio reels (aaa), at emil berliner (formerly the in-house recording department of renowned classical record label deutsche grammophon) for the 45rpm dlp, and at the equally famous frankfurter sst studio for the lp.

the records fundament are slow, powerful beats which hold everything together springintgut has been responsible for the studio production at most times while f.s. blumm, experienced for years in making radio plays, has handled the mixing and collaging of the parts. the bird and white noise invites to join the travels, and in its long arches and bridges it can easily be listened to as a whole. while the opener or eskimono feature the rather lyrical side of the duo, tracks like land ab neu or chitin set more punchy priorities to a heavy bass and 808 drums. chitin is a late climax of the album, building up for minutes to a massive groove in an insect-like, abstract sound world, leaving just enough space for romantic cello lines to break through in the middle. the record has been released exclusively in japan for the duos tour in april 2014 via pingipungs partner label nightcruising in kyoto. pingipung now releases the lp version and the cd worldwide
