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.

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。

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.

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。

1ST HOUR/前半 BOW / 2ND HOUR/後半 CHLOE

aired 2022.12.13 on lyl.live

This month's guest mix by BOW is an almost literal journey into space psychedelia going from ambient, jazz to psych rock.
Based in Tokyo, BOW is active as half of the DJ duo Zundoko Disco (@zundokodisco). He is well-known for his dubby techno selections, which makes his contribution to the series a rare one.
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。
後半は私が担当し、年末／世界の終わりをテーマにしたセレクションをお届けします。
