Let me see those hands. Haisuinonasa get all glitchy in their latest “reflection” and the poor interpretive dancer flinches at times to keep up. Other times the music is beautifully flowing and the dancer adjusts with some nice T’ai chi moves, other times it’s Mr. Roboto out there. Go with the flo over to CDJapan … Continue reading »

films- “Bubbles” MV
“Bubbles.” Tiny bubbles from the tiny voices of films. What a masterful composition of deep bellowing piano and flighty strings. It’s like Tori Amos did classical experimental. Really pretty music. Films might be a little serious, but films is top notch orchestral music. Their album a forbidden garden was released on April 26, 2013 and … Continue reading »
SATOL- “iRUy” MV
SATOL is all handsy in this body strobe light video for “iRUy.” Imagine getting your radio station stuck between two dials, one being gospel and the other being drum n’ bass and you get this static-sounding single “iRUy.” It’s truly bizarre and lasts almost 7 minutes long. Either you have the patience for this kind … Continue reading »

Kuuchuusen- “Sachiko” MV
Kuuchuusen will run you over with their extremely weird jingly jangly single “Sachiko.” These experimental guitars will knock you in the air and leave you writhing on the ground in agony. The best part of Kuuchuusen’s video is how the audio keeps going in and out, so it’s mostly drama rather than music. Yet, when … Continue reading »
Kataoka Fuguri- “麻” PV
With an acoustic guitar this creepy, you don’t won’t to be caught out in a cabin in the woods. Trust me. And yet, that’s what we get from Kataoka Fuguri and this haunting single “麻.” It’s a slow walk in the dark woods in this song with meandering notes and whispery vocals. It will make … Continue reading »
De De Mouse- “floats & falls” MV
Trying to snap a proper screen grab of De De Mouse is like trying to catch a mouse in a field. Virtually impossible. And even still he comes out blurry.. Is De De Mouse a ghost? You might think so with his hauntingly beautiful synth electronica 9 minute song “floats & falls.” Not only is … Continue reading »

Continue reading »
Nyolfen- “Pulse” album trailer digest
Nothing like some headache inducing ambient glitch to start your day. Hello! It’s Nyolfen’s digest for Pulse and it’s a mix of shrill clinks, and static and stuttering fused with hip hop beats. You either like it or ya don’t! A couple of tracks really catch my ear, like “In Forest” and “Just a Drop … Continue reading »
kanina- “forget me not” PV
Kanina has released a very long and artsy video for “forget me not” (which I think came out in August of 2011). The video is super arty-farty with the lead singer walking around in the sun in black with an umbrella laying down in the middle of some old railroad tracks and wandering aimlessly in … Continue reading »
