NTS Guide to: Japanese Jazz Off-Cuts 070923

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Japan became the birthplace of a distinctive and intense form of psychedelic music, emerging from the underground scene and centred around pioneering labels like PSF Records. This movement was marked by a raw, dissonant, and fuzzed-out sound that combined elements of noise, free jazz, and traditional psychedelic rock. 

This two hour show documents the sounds of several key bands that played a significant role in shaping this unique musical landscape such as Fushitsuha, Les Rallizes De Nudes, Shizuka, Acid Mothers Temple and more.

NTS Guide to: Japanese Underground Psychedelia 230824

A two hour journey through the utterly singular sound of Broadcast. Fronted by the late Trish Keenan, the Birmingham band melded the novel soundscaping of library music and early electronic experiments with their own sensitive take on indie rock and pop. Keenan's untimely passing in 2011 effectively ended the project - but a limited amount of previously unheard material has surfaced in the following years. 

This mix features classics and obscurities from across Broadcast's discography, including exclusive tracks featured in upcoming compilation "[Distant Call - Collected Demos 2000-2006](https://broadcast.bandcamp.com/album/distant-call-collected-demos-2000-2006)".

SOPHIA ZHURAVKOVA w/ Rhucle 230225

Tearooms in post-revolution Czechoslovakia symbolised places through which new spiritualities were flowing, and the influx of largely uncharted ways of life closely intertwined with new age, ambient, folk and minimalism. With their minds altered thanks to smuggled records by Fripp & Eno or Steve Reich, this loose network of musicians had begun composing meditative music, using loops and handmade instruments, with a different sensibility. Compared to the boisterous Zappa-adjacent and booze-soaked underground movement, which was led by Plastic People of the Universe and provoked the state authorities, this music was meant instead for tea rooms and spiritual sites like churches or monasteries, as if occupying some place where time flows anticlockwise. Music journalist Pavel Klusák dub...

- Autumn envelops -
by Kaoru Inoue @kaoru324

In mid-September in 2025, a new facility opened in Tokyo, and I was commissioned to create the background music for several common areas on one of its floors. It was the largest music production project I’ve taken on so far. One of the spaces is equipped with an immersive audio system, where multi-track sound files were installed to work with a custom acoustic design and a multi-channel speaker setup.
I dedicated roughly the first half of 2025 to this project. Although the process had its challenges, it became an invaluable experience—offering me a rare opportunity to reconsider, in my own way, how environmental and ambient music can function in contemporary and public spaces. This mix is built around tracks I referenced during the production period, along with other pieces I explored in the process.

先日9月中旬にオープンした都内某施設の一部フロアの共用部分数カ所で流れるBGMを制作した。音楽制作の仕事でここまで大型のものを受けたのは初めてで、さらにそのうちの1カ所はいわゆるイマーシブ・オーディオのシステムが入っており、独自の音響設計に従って配置されたマルチ・チャンネル・スピーカーに対応するようマルチ・トラックの音源がインストールされている。
2025年、今年前半の約半年をこの制作に捧げたわけだが、困難な行程も得難い体験となり、また環境音楽やアンビエント・ミュージックについて現代的・公共空間的に（自分なりに）再考する又と無い機会となった。今回のミックスはこの制作期間に参照した楽曲と、それに伴い掘っていた曲達を軸に構成した。

A raw snippet taken from part of @Tapes epic DJ set at the Good Morning Tapes release party back on Thursday August 23 2018 at Paloma, Berlin.

Tapes @ Good Morning Tapes / Paloma / Berlin 23.08.2018

When we invited @akiram-en for the first time in 2017, he blew our minds with one of the most extraordinary sets of the whole festival. This time he played a much bigger stage and slot - with a very different set, though no less captivating and eagerly mind-blowing. The sound of a true shaman.
