TAKE ME HOME

French Dj Piu Piu has teamed up with Rinse France to select and reunite the crème de la crème of the French techno scene into a fresh new compilation entitled Local Time. Here, she treats us with an exclusive track from Shlømo, co-founder of Taapion Records - a cinematographic electronica that recalls the poetic aura of French Techno.

Comment:

I think that ambient music is the music that does not limit how to listen. I hope this album will be familiar to each way of listening to music.

AMBIENT MUSIC= 環境音楽とは聴き方を限定しない音楽のことだと思っています。このアルバムを手にとって下さった方々それぞれの聴き方に馴染みますように今は祈るばかりです。

Mr. Isao Tomita, a pioneer of synthesizer music, has left a word that "electronic and human beings are phenomena" as well as before life. That moment and eternity the dust of the universe gathers and eventually returns to the dust of the universe. Listening to Enitokwa's music, such feelings go round.

シンセサイザー・ミュージックの先駆者、富田勲さんが生前に、「電子音も人間も現象である」と言葉を残されています。宇宙の塵が集合し、やがてまた宇宙の塵へと戻る、その一瞬と永遠。Enitokwaの音楽を聴いて、そんな想いが巡ります。

It is a sound richly containing theanine (sweet ingredient of tea), a gem that can taste slowly and lean heart. A documentary scenery sound reminiscent of the tea making process at Ujikoen is arranged in the whole story, and the virtuous thing with a frankly act is very refreshing.
Please try to entrust with peace of mind in "definite" works which extracted carefully every single drop.

It has been inherited the calmness from Keizan Temple constantly since 700 years ago.
How does the former pioneers feel the fragrance that Enitokwa brings up？

テアニン(お茶の甘み成分)を芳醇に含んだ音であり、心を傾けてゆっくりと味わうことの出来る逸品。宇治香園での製茶工程を想起させるドキュメンタリーな風景音が全編に配置されており、そこはかとない作為との妙がとても静涼です。 一滴一滴丁寧に抽出された"確実な"作品に安心して身を委ねてみて下さい。

径山寺から700余年 連綿と受け継がれる清閑な
営み
Enitokwaが立ち上らせる薫りはかつての先人達にどう映るのであろうか?

The level to make it play after the storm. It was organic and quiet sequence that emerged and relieved feeling. I'd love to recommend the new work of Enitokwa which is completed!

嵐の後に再生させる境地。浮き出たのは有機的で静かなシーケンスと安堵感でした。完成されているEnitokwaの新作を是非!

I'm Conscious

Rainer Veil are Liam Morley and Dan Valentine, two friends who met while studying contemporary music in the north of England. The pair began improvising and making drones in a dark basement before incorporating a broader palette and forming Rainer Veil as an ongoing concern last year. ‘Struck’ is their first EP and debut for Modern Love, following an appearance at the label Boiler Room takeover in August 2012.
The ‘Struck’ EP incorporates recordings made over the last year and extends from the rewired Jungle ruckus of the title track to the more emotive formation of ‘Wade In’ and ‘Bala’, through to the hazy closer ‘Yield’. There’s a melancholy pop pulsing at the heart of these tracks, coloured by a love of electronic mutations from UKG and Hardcore rave to House and Techno, most evident in the unusual recording process undertaken while constructing the EP. Each track was re-worked from radically different first drafts, often starting life as more recognisable and structured songs before being dismantled into more abstract shapes: percussion degraded and layered, vocals fed through analog delays, samples reworked at the wrong speed and re-sampled to tape for added warmth: the narrative all mixed up.
