Get lost in the abstracted beauty of a landscape of sounds. Listen well, not to understand but to make sure that you do not understand.

1ST HOUR/前半 Chee Shimizu / 2ND HOUR/後半 CHLOE

aired 2021.4.27 on lyl.live

An authority on little-known gems, Chee (@OrganicChee) has been quietly but ceaselessly working on bringing forgotten music to the light, as shown in his essential book Obscure Sound (reissued in 2020). He is mostly found behind the counter at his record store Organic Music, in a quiet suburb of Tokyo. His mix (first hour) is a quiet journey across genres and worlds, representative of what is one of Chee's most well-known fields of expertise, a beautiful and mysterious zone sometimes called "listening music". 

知る人ぞ知る名曲の権威、Chee Shimizuは、忘れられた音楽を世に送り出すべく、静かにしかし絶え間なく活動を続けてきました。その成果は、2020年に再版された彼の重要な著書『Obscure Sound』にも表れています。
彼の姿は主に、東京の閑静な郊外にある自身のレコード店Organic Musicのカウンター越しに見ることができます。
前半のCheeさんのミックスは、ジャンルと世界を超えた静かな旅です。これは、彼の最もよく知られた専門分野の一つを代表するもので、時に「リスニング・ミュージック」と呼ばれる美しく神秘的な領域を体現しています。

lyl.live/show/the-greater-good

This month's guest is Kyoto-based Iryoku. In her own words: "As a child, I had insomnia but I became a narcoleptic at puberty". Her inner landscapes are Osaka, where she was born and raised, and Hong Kong, which she used to visit at least once a year before the Handover. Her influences include poets Gozo Yoshimasu and Octavio Paz, and writers Kenji Nakagami, Gilles Deleuze and Pierre-Félix Guattari. She has had mixes released on respected underground labels such as Black Smoker and Altzmusica. Her selections appeal to all senses, often collaged with field recordings and spoken word: while retaining an experimental approach, they flow effortlessly, with an extraordinary cinematic quality. She plays the first hour, followed by a free-form ambient mix by Sobriety.

The first guest for season 3 of the show is YAMA. Starting her career in 1994, she has been working as a buyer for Osaka's own Newtone Records since it opened. She has since been part of some of the most ambitious and lauded underground parties and happenings, such as eep (with Boredoms' EYE), FLOWER OF LIFE, and MUSICO 6.
Her mix (first hour) is remarkably eclectic and beautifully disjointed, and yet it goes deeper and deeper, hooking you into a groove you're not really sure you can hear. Second hour is an improvised collage of ambient electronics and experimental cuts by me. Bye 2021! 

シーズン3の最初のゲストはYAMAです。1994年にキャリアをスタートさせ、大阪のNewtone Recordsのオープン以来バイヤーとして働いています。それ以来、彼女はBoredomsのEYEとのeep、FLOWER OF LIFE、MUSICO 6など、最も野心的で賞賛される地下パーティーやイベントの一部となってきました。彼女のミックス（前半）は驚くほど幅広く、美しく不連続ですが、どんどん深く潜り込み、聴こえているかどうかわからないグルーヴにリスナーを引き込みます。後半はアンビエントエレクトロニクスと実験的な曲のインプロビゼーションコラージュをしました。さらば2021年！

https://lyl.live/episode/the-greater-goods-15

This month's guest for the first half of the show is @MITAYO from snowy Sapporo, the city dubbed by many as the music capital of Japan. Orbiting around legendary club Precious Hall - famous for its no-frills lineups year-round and world-class sound system - and underground music temple Provo, MITAYO has carved himself a place as an exceptional selector, even by Sapporo's standards. His contribution to the series is as unique and eclectic as can be. It will remind those who know of MITAYO's own place Spice no Ana, a cosy restaurant with an excellent DJ setup, nested in the middle of the city. This is where he hosts "Datsuryoku Ongakukai", a party that can only be described as a listening session/house party with food, desserts, booze and a generous dose of Japanese New Year's vibes: quiet yet festive, still and joyful at the same time.

今月のゲストは、多くの人が日本の音楽の都と呼ぶ雪の街・札幌からMITAYOをお迎えします。年間を通じてガチなラインナップと世界クラスの音響システムで有名な伝説的クラブPrecious Hallと、アンダーグラウンド音楽の聖地Provoを中心に活動するMITAYOは、札幌の基準でさえ卓越したセレクターとしての地位を確立しています。
彼のミックスは、唯一無二で幅広いものです。MITAYOの自身の店、Spice no Anaを知る人々には懐かしく感じられるでしょう。それは街の中心にある、素晴らしいDJ設備を備えた居心地の良いレストランです。ここで彼は「脱力音楽会」を主催しています。この会は、リスニングセッションとハウスパーティーが一体となった場で、食事やデザート、お酒とともに、日本の大晦日の雰囲気が惜しみなく味わえます。静かでありながらお祭り気分、落ち着きと喜びが同時に感じられるのです。

https://lyl.live/episode/the-greater-good-13

ROCKDOWN is as low-profile as he is highly regarded in the selector circuit in Japan. Having amassed a massive collection of Japanese ambient and house rarities (and some more) long before the craze took over the world, his output of podcasts (Walearic Series, NTS, Creme Organization...) is very sought after by those in the know, as is the record bible "Walearic Disk Guide" he contributed to as a writer.
ROCKDOWN's mix (first half) gradually builds up from deep to mellow, before your host take over for the second hour with some more Japanese experimentalism, dub and library music.

1ST HOUR/前半 AKIE / 2ND HOUR/後半 CHLOE

aired 2022.7.27 on lyl.live

Organic ambient and sweaty drones with Tokyo-via-Osaka DJ and selector Akie @ak_is_error
Akie has cultivated an ear for rare sounds since coming of age, working for collectors’ favorite record store Rare Groove in Osaka. Now in Tokyo, she is a buyer for newtone records and released a mixtape on Bristol label do you have peace? in early 2022. Her mix is an exercise in restraint, effortlessly taking you exactly where your mind needs to be.

東京を拠点に活動する大阪出身のDJ兼セレクターAkieが前半を担当し、オーガニックアンビエントと汗ばむようなドローンを披露してくれます。
Akieは成長期から珍しい音源への感性を磨き、大阪のコレクター御用達レコード店Rare Grooveで働いていました。現在は東京に拠点を移し、newtone recordsのバイヤーとして活躍。2022年初頭にはブリストルのレーベル do you have peace? からミックステープをリリースしています。彼女のミックスは抑制の効いた演奏で、あなたの心が求める場所へ苦もなく連れて行ってくれます。最高です。

Second half by me is an end of the year / end of the world-themed selection. 

今月のゲストミックスはBOWが担当し、アンビエントやジャズからサイケロックまで、文字通り宇宙的サイケデリアへの旅を繰り広げます。
東京を拠点に活動するBOWは、DJユニットZundoko Disco（@zundokodisco）の一員としても知られています。普段はダビーなテクノのセレクションで有名なため、今回のシリーズへの貢献は彼の珍しい一面を見せてくれるものとなっています。

We go on an excursion with Dr. Nishimura towards the edges of deep techno, crossing a slow-motion storm of tribal drums and lush synth pads. Dr. Nishimura is an absolute master at his craft, whether handling italo cosmic cuts, breakbeat rollers or Japanese city pop. With more than 20 years under his belt as an expert buyer, notably for the late Cisco record stores (Tokyo), he currently runs Sunline Records (http://sunlinerecords.jp), an online store full of hand-picked wax beauties. Together with @Compuma and Awano, he is one-third of Akuma no Numa ("The Devil's Swamp": check https://soundcloud.com/compuma/akuma-no-numa-at-contact-tokyo-on-november-1-2019), an acclaimed DJ super-act specializing in "sound tectonics", or in other words, the finest slo-mo psychedelia around. The first hour is by Dr. Nishimura, the second hour is some more crawling leftfield favorites by me.

This month's guest is Ritsuko Sakata (@ritsuko-sakata). A photographer, DJ and vocalist/guitarist of the unit pagtas, she made a name by releasing some very sought-after mix CDs which solely comprise of, respectively, Taiwanese rare cuts, motorbike sounds, and Dominican bass music. A longstanding figure of the alternative music scene in Tokyo which knows no boundaries of genre or means of self-expression, she likes to describe her style as simply "tropical". She delivers an hour of full-throttle aural exploration between minimalist music, reggaeton and footwork guaranteed to make your heart race.
Sobriety takes care of the second hour of the show with an eclectic selection oscillating between stretched-out dubs, drum'n'bass and IDM.
