The Grinning Cat was a great album as well, he was so good.

i first heard this in 2011 and, at the time, found myself wanting to like it more than i did. different expectations or something. because of the reissue news, i listened again a few weekends ago while i was working on my kitchen and it was blowing my mind. really clicking for me more than back when. sublime all over. don't know how to vote yet.

i first heard this record in 1995 at a dance vinyl place in providence r.i., downtown, i can't remember the name of the shop. the guy who ran it i remember as a kind of a proto-burning man type but incredibly knowledgable and friendly and enthusiastic as practically everyone who ran those sorts of shops was then. he gave me all kinds of recommendations. this is the same guy who sold me one of my favorite records of all time (on Sublime!) - the Thorn EP by Low Res with the track "Reflective Blackdebris". which a quick Google shows me there is now a released live version of. i just died.

tinny

lol u got that right

lol sorry for the derail but.. i now have listened to the live version of Low Res' "Reflective Blackdebris". and it appears that the original, one of the most special tracks of all time for me, is apparently not called that at all and i'd been reading the label wrong.

maybe not such a derail tho because people into susumu yokota would REALLY like the "look back with knife" collection of rare/unreleased Low Res stuff i think

was it amuck?

"speculative reminiscing"

which my googling has discovered was played out by aphex twin in a set two years ago! so it does please me that the was at least one room full of dancers who heard it at full volume in a really buzzing environment

Just heard this for the first time last week (thanks to this thread) and have listened four times since then. I think I'm voting "Kinoko" but wanna give it at least one more spin before I decide.

Going with Akafuji - seems landscape-appropriate - starts cavernous and ends up monumental.

calumerio, Tuesday, 26 February 2019 21:27 (five years ago) link

kinoko: proper spooky wildlife techno

I didn't expect this to be this good. A great find.

(I was just playing it and it segued into World Receiver which was just about goddamn perfect.)

Sakura is peak Yokota for me but I find myself going back to the Water's Edge EP he did with Rothko quite a bit.
