RELEASES
[IA.005] Nobara: Trail EP [free mp3]
The tracks on Trail EP by Colombian-born Japanese musician, Nobara Hayakawa, are a bundle of select experimental shoegaze electronica sketches recorded for different projects using computers, acoustic instruments and voice — together they project a journey back in time into what every person on earth can feel as speaking of something deeply honest and real (including irony).
[IA.004] Legofriendly: Egg Beater [CD]
"If Mouse on Mars got totally funked-up, were joined by sound surgeons Autechre, and together somehow captured the pop spirit of I am Robot and Proud, you might end up with something like Egg Beater, the second album by Tokyo-based electronic music duo Legofriendly." Egg Beater is dense urban electronic music with catchy melodies, funky rhythms and densely-layered audio landscapes — music to be enjoyed on different levels with each listen!
The album is available in all major CD chain stores throughout Japan (HMV, Tower Records), in your favourite specialist stores (Warzawa, Art Rock No.1, etc), through iTunes , as well as through mailorder direct from Intervall-audio.
[IA.003] Kumiko Okamura: MDDA [free mp3]
Kumiko Okamura, a current resident of the megalopolis of Tokyo but born in the snowy regions of Niigata prefecture, is a self-proclaimed 'broken composer' and 'accident life player'. Her MDDA album, a collection of improvised first-takes recorded onto four-track tape, is full of elegy, poetry and violence — a dream-world that does not serve to prevent, but rather to invite, shock.
[IA.002] Sora: Live at Metro [free mp3]
Sora is the alias of Kyoto-based electronic musician Takeshi Kurosawa. The Japanese word sora (空) means 'sky', 'the blue' or 'the heavens'. But the Japanese character also means 'empty', and the tracks on Live at Metro indeed evoke the peacefully relaxing atmosphere and emptiness of mind that an entire day, from sunrise to sunset, of a summer holiday spent at the beach brings.
[IA.001] Legofriendly: Form EP (2006) [free mp3]
Legofriendly has been making quirky but determinedly accessible electronic music since 2002 when Stan Eberlein and Peter Slade met in Tokyo and decided to collaborate for an upcoming live performance. It soon became apparent that the partnership was a productive one, with many of the ideas from these early sessions going on to become the six tracks that make up Form, a limited release CD-R (2003), made available now again as a re-mastered free MP3 download from Intervall-audio.
