It has been a while. I am nearly, nearly done with my PhD. To procrastinate, I have released some free music and a non-free single Shigin. I think Shigin is a bit odd, and maybe the danciest thing I have made. Maybe check it out.
I also put up a video of me jamming on my Kastle 1.5 in the local park.
However, I have also set up a preorder for my new ambient album, Unbalanced Humours and in true ageing hipster style, I am making it available on cassette. That means you get to treasure something that is small enough for me to send in the post.
It’s dark and ambient but not ‘dark ambient’, if you get what I mean. I was looking for a label, which seems actually quite difficult if you don’t quite fit in with harsh noise or ambient. I love both, and Unbalanced Humours has aspects of the harsh noise scene (but is not harsh, but has maybe gentle noise) and therefore not quite ambient enough for the ambient people. There is a lot of drone, yes.
The album is 500 yen for digital, and 900 yen plus tax and shipping for cassette in the preorder period. It ‘drops’ 25th October, as the youth say.
