Retro qualities with bold new elements. Like this sound

This feels like a scene from a show, you did really good

This beautiful piece could easily serve as the soundtrack to an adventure film. The atmosphere is magnificent, and the sounds truly open up space for the imagination!

Thank you for your comments! I'm happy to hear your opinions!😊🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

cool ambient and set of instrument unusual but very nice... like the tempo and type of playing... cool...

@ryansheckler thank you!!😊🙏🙏🙏

I’m always on the hunt for vintage, psychedelic tracks.
This one — if I had to put it into words — carries a faint trace of the ‘80s. But it’s not about nostalgia.
It’s rooted in my love for dub, layered over breakbeats with a post-rock spirit, and driven by a sharp electronic edge.

It’s like New Order suddenly crashing into a session, and the Bristol crew getting into a brawl right then and there.
Chaotic, yes — but a chaos with intent. Noise with direction.

My music is instrumental. I don’t use vocals.
That doesn’t mean I don’t respect them — on the contrary, I hold vocalists and lyricists in the highest regard.
But the story I want to tell doesn’t need words.
I speak through melodies, I scream through beats, and I question through silence.
That’s my form of storytelling.

I know this track might not be easy to grasp right away.
But if you’re into krautrock, post-rock, alternative, hip-hop, IDM, or experimental electronic music —
you just might find something in it that resonates with you.

I’m Japanese.
And I believe there’s something compelling about how a Japanese mind interprets psychedelic sound.
Maybe not as wildly unhinged as Damo Suzuki’s work with Can,
but this is my own vision of a sonic trip — one that’s more grounded, yet still deeply exploratory.

The result is this track,
ironically named — Classy Slang.

If you give it a listen, I’d be honored.
Come take a journey through my world, told entirely through sound.

The shadow of UK new wave, the depth of roots dub.
Guitar filtered through Tommy Guerrero, broken beats from IDM.
The origin: hip-hop. The destination: undefined.

Progressing like post-rock, sinking into lo-fi.
A quiet homage to New Order, Boards of Canada, and Madlib.

Classy Slang

Memory doesn’t fade—it transforms. It becomes sound, seeps into the present, and subtly shifts reality.
1928 is a reflection on how fragments of the past echo into now, shaping emotions, choices, and perceptions.
Images, voices, and feelings thought long buried return uninvited, rewriting the present in silence.
Time moves forward, but within us, it folds and loops.
This isn’t nostalgia—it’s the haunting truth that memory still lives here, shaping who we are.

Ein kleiner Ausflug in die wunderbare Welt der deutschen Sprichwörter und Redewendungen....

Das Haar in der Suppe (106 bpm)

Das Haar in der Suppe,
es muss gefunden werden...., Such!

Die Stecknadel im Heuhaufen..., Such!
...muss gefunden werden!

Das Licht am Ende des Tunnels,
wer hat es bloß angelassen..., Such!

Im a Man of Many Thinkings

This is a re-upload of a track that was recorded a few years ago.  It was originally recorded in 2023, and it consists of 3 different segments of sitar and drum jams spliced together with subsequent sitar and bass tracks added after.  Drums were played by Mick Mack, sitar and bass by Gremescer Fuckburger.  I generally like the way it turned out, but I always wished I had tuned the sitar better before recording.  I have edited this track a bit to fix some of the tuning issues, but there is only so much I can do.  Either way, I hope you enjoy.

(a note by sonic structures and silent stretches)
Jeff and I both feel the grieve of letting go. In times like these, though, it might be wiser to move unpredictably. Our special thanks go to the memory of Carlos Castaneda, whose novels and gesta and concepts of reality had had quite an impression on our respective minds when they were a lot younger and infinitely more malleable. It's been a blast!

(a note from stonerjazz)
The photograph of the lovely bench taken by Jo reminds me of the conversations between Carlos Casteneda and Juan Matus while sitting on benches in city parks about Magic and human beings and the sheer wonder of this existence--the empty bench signifies their absence in a most poignant way and the final installment in this definitive journey-- and yes indeed it has been a Blast!:)

part I: journey's end
on the brink of sanity
patterns to puzzle a lot from
radiance translates as "shree"
illuminates the rhizome

as alchemists nurse sympathy
stellar drone and terran hum
dot the i and cross the t
I am many, we are one

and when the falcon's freefall flight
devours Osiris' agony
you sit, you breathe, you call it a night 
for feathers defy gravity
you have no name, you have no weight 
uncirculate demummified

Part II: journal's end
Even though, small and uninformed
he seemed to know and though he tried
to get a fix on how and why and when and where
Explanations, few and far between
appearing only in a dream
forgotten in the waking
while brains are baking
and crud is caking on the carcass
while it's slipping in it"s standing
exponentially expanding disappointments
take their toll,
even though, wouldn't trade
this moment for a nickel or
for anything at all
graduated, gratified beyond belief
time's the culprit
time's the thief

journal's end

Insecurities

Not Underground. Not Mainstream. Just Left Ground.

Left Ground Music stands outside the boundaries of genres and scenes.
We are neither part of the mainstream nor the underground—we exist in the “left ground”, a space where sound refuses to conform.

From electronica, dub, and ambient to post-rock textures, our releases carve out soundscapes that demand attention, not background listening.
Born in Japan, our music captures the collision of urban noise and natural silence, offering listeners a sonic experience that feels both familiar and alien.

This is music for those who walk the edges of reality.
This is Left Ground.
