Imagine being a punk rocker before the advent of punk rock, or a hippie that puts a cynical meaning in the message of peace. It's just like Pip Proud in Sydney in the 1960s, who cursed the media and its hypocrisy and made music that cuts through all the falsehoods. (Excerpt from David Nichols, commentary)

An anthology of the musical works of Australian outsider poet Pip Proud, also known as "Syd Barrett on the other side of the globe," under the supervision of his biographer, Professor David Nichols. All songs first appeared in Japan!

He has a quiet voice with a tangled tongue, and his vocal range is less than half an octave. (Omitted) A complete understanding of the childhood sensibilities shown in these songs is the most extraordinary feature of his work. "(From commentary) ... Proud is unprecedented in Australia. At that time, the industry was awkward, and it wasn't even described as a "pioneer" in that even followers weren't established, and it was just an "outsider" who was isolated from the front and back. Syd Barrett and Daniel Johnston have a strong personality that once you hear it, you will never leave your mind.

This work is an anthology selected from the phantom private 1st album produced in the 1960s, 2 albums released in majors, and treasured recordings in the early 70s, and the latest remaster based on the sound source source generated from the master tape. Was given. In addition, with the cooperation of Professor Nichols, an English poem that should be called "Pip" was published as a text for the first time in the world based on a draft handwritten by the writer (→ This English poem alone is of great value!). The CD version adds 3 bonus songs.

If you're a fan of Hiramazu, VIDEOTAPEMUSIC, Tortoise, Tommy Guerrero, Martin Denny, or Balearic jungle, you're definitely a narcissus! Argentine talent Emilio Alo's new work is a fantastic, mellow and minimalistic exotic tribal music in the name of the band. Released worldwide from M Records.

The solo works "Panorámico" (2007) and "Estrambótico" (2012) released by Emilio Alo, a multi-instrumentalist writer who does not need explanation for Argentine music fans, are a new generation after the acoustic group. It was a complete studio work under the influence of folklore revival. However, it is extremely important that the key man of the scene dared to form a band here. The debut album of this suspicious band name , which is named after the South American crocodile, is a concept of music that flows in an unexplored region, imagining the music played by a fictitious tribe. Alo's own instrument called Kalimbaphone (the name is also the best!), Which is a remodeled Kalimba, is set as the core, and the band groove, which is mellow and fantastically played with loose waves, is quite hypnotic. Addictive. It's a waste to be monopolized only by Argentine music fans, and there is no doubt that fans of Hiramazu and VIDEOTAPEMUSIC will definitely be addicted to this fantasy music!

"The Countryside Is Great" by Runepet Laemsin, the song in the play that became the theme song for "Bangkok Nights" (included on the soundtrack CD). It would be great if I could hear this instrumental thing! The first thing that came to our minds when we dreamed was Emerson Kitamura, who we all love! This 70s Thai funk Luk Thung classic "Country is good" was overly picopico covered with Emmasolo 18th synth & rhythm box, and cooked in 2 versions of instrumental and dub!

Another highlight is the killer, slightly dreamy version featuring mmm (Mimaimo) on vocals, which wipes out the image of the 70s disco hit "Rock Your Baby" famous for Kiyoshi Matsutakeya / Tomatos version. And another happy song is a DOPE instrumental tune that was reconstructed by interpreting the songs from Ankanan Kunchai's 1st album as bass music, and its name is "Ramprun Salab Korn Sawan Bassline", Thai music enthusiast, techno, dubstep. PURE dance cut that pushes to step and trap fans. The strongest and most fun 12-inch with 4 songs that I've been waiting for! (Binding: Shinsuke Takagi / Soi48)

The second of two EM Records 12-inch vinyl-only "tribute releases" in support of the Kuzoku film "Bangkok Nites", this time by rap group stillichimiya, local heroes in their Yamanashi homeland. Based on samples from Dao Bandon's biggest hit, the classic luk thung Isan tune "Man on a Water Buffalo" [EM1131CD/LP], the tracks here, including a remix by Compuma, are a grittier, real-world counterpart to the dreamy first release in the series.

A folk trio who was active in Derbyshire in central England met Jane Marsden, a vocalist with a brilliant voice, and this was the opportunity for the birth of a six-member electric folk rock band, No Light Turn. They gained popularity in central England, and in 1983, at Woodwarm Studio, which was the core of the Fairport Convention, they independently produced their first album, "No Light Turn." (Adding a cover song "Lady of Pleasure" that respects Fairport to the album) The uniqueness of NRT is that although it is not so much involved in live performances, two songwriters, Phil Harrison and Tim Dawson, Being on the back as a member, the repertoire of major vocal songs was the original that became their pen. Jane's multi-recording / double-track vocals, reminiscent of Linda Perhax, were the band's glamor, and the British-style refreshing and melancholy voice matched Harrison / Dawson's original songs best. While there are songs that appeal to the times, such as "Roller Coaster" where neo acoustic acoustic guitars run, "Lawlands Away" which invites nostalgia, and "What Do You Do?" Rearrange traditional songs such as "Ash Plant" and "Waves" into a heavy progressive instrument like Pink Floyd. This exquisite sense of balance is also the charm of the band. It's a local indie independent board, but it's a lovable miracle work that is truly a masterpiece!

The latest work "Hear / Here", which is M's fifth work in total, was recorded in his hometown of San Francisco, where he produced the masterpiece 1st "Isophonic Bugiugi" (1980), which is his origin. He moved to New York in the early 80's. He suddenly moved to Israel in 2013, but returned to San Francisco last year. This latest composition collection "Hear / Here" was produced there.

Roland, who consistently produces works with improvisational composition, has a top-notch mix of electronics and acoustics, with a sense of Pharaoh Sanders, techno, electronic music, and classical music. The spirituality and ambientness, and the (

This work is a cutting-edge attempt to create a new Amazon by using "Amazonia" (1990), an Amazon expedition record by Finis Africae, a classic of Balear Relic, as a sound material. Strongly inspired by Toru Takemitsu, Joji Yuasa, Charles Ives, Juan Alberto and others, this work has strong elements as classical and contemporary music, but it makes full use of analog and digital instruments and recording techniques, collage and sound art, We will cook shredded materials from various perspectives such as electronic music and folk music. The finest natural beauty and psychedelia, in the endless inner universe that spreads in front of the listener, the electronic sound that shimmers like a heat haze leads, and the magnificent nature and the earth beat on the leaves of the sound, a pleasant ambience Cosmicche soundscape that wanders into the unexplored interior with the wind. This emotional melody is truly unique.

Baan Yen Laken is a leading figure who has built up the existence of a female mass idol Mor lam in the heyday, and is a superstar who has been the goal of many singers including Ankanan and Hong Thong since the latter half of the 1960s. Discovered by Isan's big-name producer, Tape Pubut, she has an urban mor lam that was one of the first to incorporate Western music, and destroyed traditional mor lam entertainment with flashy costumes and bewitching stage productions. The state of (* meaning of development and development in Thai) that foresaw this era was criticized at that time, but the influence that it became more enthusiastic and became the mainstream of the present age is immeasurable.

She was supported not only by her cuteness and flashiness, but also by her debut in an era when good and bad songs were the first priority, and she was sung by legendary Morlam singers. Because he was a talented singer who fascinated him. That should be it, Baan Yen's singing ability learned under Morlam's classic apprenticeship is with origami. He is now one of the leading singers in the country (he has also performed at Thai festivals in Japan).

This time, she compiled the most violent 70's innovative Morlam & Luk Thung works, and distributed them in a well-balanced manner from flashy and up-to-date songs to moist and astringent songs. It is a "listening" best compilation album that focuses on the innate talent of Baan Yen, the skill of singing. Soi48, of course, for song selection, commentary, and binding!

The current three artists will challenge the difficult song "Gun Ho 1,2,3D", which is a masterpiece of New Zealand's legendary performance group From Scratch. This is a cover performance collection in which each person explores how to play with percussion as the common denominator (* not a remix collection). Everyone made it very hard. I look forward to working with you!

From Scratch is a development of a performance group organized by Phil Dudson, who learned from the far-left musician Cornelius Cardew, as the New Zealand branch of the Scratch Orchestra in the 1970s. They are known around the world for their combative custom instruments, and Ryuichi Sakamoto became a percussion instrument unit at a glance, and he visited Japan twice.

The work that can be said to be their true value is this difficult song "Gung Ho 1,2,3D", which features hocking in which the performers beat different beats individually, and the ultimate polyrhythm with accurate repetitive rhythm is a masterpiece. The sound is mechanical and inorganic in terms of characters, but the overtone-covered mundane sounds generated from the vinyl chloride tube and the slight error caused by human performance become organic components and create a mysterious ecstasy.

In this work, the original recording of 1981, which was performed in the most complicated 8,9,10 and 9,10,11 time signatures of "Gung Ho 1,2,3D", is the first, and the current three artists in Japan and abroad: Goat (M2) led by YPY Koshiro Hino / Don't DJ (M3), a German genius / Utena Kobayashi (M4), who is currently active in DAN, Tokumaru Shugo, etc. Contains a total of 4 works. All the performances are based on the score, but the interpretations of the four are completely different, and despite the fairly advanced performance, it has a pop appearance due to the repetitive rhythm.
