I don't mean to hijack this ...Thanks, C Patera. I don't mean to hijack this post and make it about something other than the Pablo PIcasso record, but I but I bought Utakata no Hibi from a tiny, 2nd floor back ally record shop in Shijuku in 2008 after hearing one of the songs. It's been my favorite record ever since. I'm not in Japan in anymore so it's difficult to delve too much deeper, but something about its odd pop appeal, its gorgeous sound pallet and its heavily atmospheric approach leave me wanting to hear more. I love the heavy use of what sounds like bamboo marimbas, mbira sounds, the use of delay. It took me a long time to even begin to understand what they were doing. It's perfect.<br /><br />As for the Tamao Koike song, I don't even know if there's anything else she's done that I like, but that song is also absolute perfection.<br /><br />I like what you're posting. I'll be checking back.Ryannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557731319182427436.post-88193394685509788832011-01-03T22:03:22.676-06:002011-01-03T22:03:22.676-06:00Ryan,

I was wondering if you have anything in a similar vein of Mariah's Utakata No Hibi. <br /><br />I've also been trying to find 三国志のテーマ 小池玉緒 for some time now: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfBDrwMFtjA <br /><br />Anything you can do to help would be most appreciated.

judging by the download...thanks for the kind words!<br />judging by the download figures, you're not alone in liking the nagomu stuff. actually, a lot of that stuff is a cheaper and easier to find than what I usually post here, but it turns up on discogs/ebay less often. try checking with some japanese record stores if you are interested in physical copies.<br />that being said, expect some more nagomu releases posted VERY soon!<br /><br />c.c.paterahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14727727306670354276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557731319182427436.post-71408924334760441712011-01-02T22:10:58.570-06:002011-01-02T22:10:58.570-06:00words can not express how awesome this blog is. es...words can not express how awesome this blog is. especially all the nagomu stuff over the last two months.. been searching for that stuff so hard.ECno8https://www.blogger.com/profile/07358112822116668823noreply@blogger.com
