chiyori-yamaan.bandcamp.com/album/mystic-high

"Mystic High", co-produced by singer CHIYORI and producer YAMAAN will be released on Monday, November 29th, 2021.

CHIYORI has long been active in the Tokyo hip-hop scene, to date releasing two solo albums and an album with the band Lostrains. She is currently expanding her activities as a DJ while also participating in numerous guest performances.

YAMAAN has been active in a wide range of genres such as ambient and hip-hop, most recently releasing the "幻想区域EP" in 2020. Lately, he has also been performing live using VHS tapes and CRT TVs.

CHIYORI and YAMAAN have been working together since their first collaboration "Call Me", released in 2008, but "Mystic High" marks their first full album together, with 8 tracks built upon their shared love of Memphis Rap and Ambient.

"すごい", with its fragments of G-Rap and floating synths, "水風呂" and its lyrics referencing the intoxication of hot and cold baths, and "I'm So High", with its fusion of Ghetto Tech and Deep House under a crystal-clear vocal line, all capture the mood of the album, which brings together a collection of tracks fusing a mystical vibe with rythmic variety and a pop sensibility.

The album features guest appearances from Katsuyuki Kobayashi, star of the documentary film "寛解の連続", a rapper with a poetic flair who embodies the real hood music of Hyogo Prefecture, Karavi Roushi, a member of the Hydro Brain MC's whose innovative flows and unique cutting edge approach to rap music is on full display on his recent album "清澄黒河", ITL, a beatmaker well versed in hiphop and beats from around the world, and Skinny Dolphin, a mysterious rapper who brings an ambient mood to his verses.

On remix duty, producer LSTNGT creates an emotional trance-inspired ”Sad Rave" sound, while BUSHMIND, a DJ/trackmaker who is trusted in a wide range of fields from HipHop to Techno and New Age lays down a high-energy edit mixing in elements of Rave and 90s New Age.

The artwork is created by designer Takara Ohashi, inspired by the album's fusion of G-Rap and Ambient elements. The album is out on CHIYORI and YAMAAN's own label "Jyuraku Rokuon". Physical release on CD and cassette tape, digital release on Bandcamp and streaming.
