Radiq — “Rhapsody” — 2x12" Vinyl

A "Rhapsody" 12:48
B "Circulatory Breathes" 9:32 
C "Nocture" 13:52
D "Sad Strings" 9:46

"Japan: the land of the rising sun and one of the worlds biggest havens for creative, forward-thinking musical freedom. Masters of a infinite number of stripped down, funk infused brands of electronic music, the japanese crews of music makers are usually teams of noble perfectionists.

Consistently shining a bright guiding light on the japanese scene, Radiq (aka Yoshihiro Hanno) remains one of Japans best exports and the reflection of what it means to be a true musician while managing his own japan-talent-only imprint Op.Disc with wit and will.

“Rhapsody” adds to the chameleon’s release catalog a 4-tracker of deep musicality, expansive 4x4 examinations and textured realms that ebb and flow between dance-focused sonatas and the kaleidoscopic intimate travels, and ultimately begging a listen all the way through. The title track ‘Rhapsody’ (A) is Yoshihiro‘s signature exploration of humanized rhyrhms, crisp claps and deep low-ends that ebb and flow with a very peculiar organic steadiness. “Circulatory Breathes” (B) uses micro-house patterns as starting point to build something more intricate where robotic movements remain constantly intertwined with amoebic perc-samples, vocal snippets, groove swings and jazzy synths. Clocking at 14 minutes, the dreamy and deeply absorbing “Antigone” (C) is the EP’s longest work, and a true hypnotic anthem that works like a musical vortex. Radiq’s artistic indulgence culminates with “Sad Strings” (D), the EP’s jazziest exploration around heavy drum programming and dramatic mood shifts.

The double EP was visually interpreted by Max Binski in a heavily textured acrylic painting, giving this release the visual perk Pluie/Noir collectors grew accustomed to. Limited Pressings."
