Blue Sky Approach - w/ Calla Discs - 25May2025

A journey through Japan’s quietly radical independent underground of the late ‘90s and early 2000s. Drawn from small-run CDs, obscure compilations, and deeply interconnected label networks, reflecting a moment where ambient, glitch, IDM, and experimental club sounds flourished into new forms — shaped by a generation of artists working across clubs, galleries, and record shops.

NTS Guide to: Music from Japan’s CD-era Electronic Underground 080725

“Recently, I’ve been really inspired by bass music in the 80-85 (or 160-70) BPM range that shifts between slow and fast registers, opening up space for a deep interior journey and for a driving, percussive dancefloor experience alike. Much music in this space that I’m drawn to has a visceral, haptic, and earthy quality -- body music for mental landscapes. 

The mix is conceived as a journey into a densely foliated forest of ever-shifting dimensions, drawing you deeper and deeper into its cavernous shadows and spectral pockets of light. Dewdrops shiver on pillowy moss ,flanked by the hungry mouths of carnivorous plants; burly vines dangle low and heavy under velvet leaves. Mysterious and heretofore unknown flora abound, beguiling you with their sensuous textures, suffusing the humid air with smells both luxuriant and noxious. Finally you emerge into a softly-hued meadow, your journey into the darkness having brought you closer to a sense of calm.”
