'Still' from The Japanese House's debut EP 'Pools To Bathe In'. Out now on iTunes: http://po.st/PoolsToBatheIn Also available on limited pastel pink 12" Vinyl: http://po.st/Pools12

The Japanese House - Still

Welcome Home is the first-ever Harvest Pop album—an autumn-season record built on warmth, memory, and the quiet beauty of returning.
These songs capture the heart of Thanksgiving without drifting into Christmas tones: no sparkle, no sleighbells, just deeply human stories told through organic instrumentation and modern indie-soul production.

Across ten tracks and bonus cuts, the album moves through family kitchens, late-night drives, porchlight reunions, familiar chairs, second helpings, and the subtle healing that happens when people gather again.
It’s nostalgic without being sentimental, emotional without being heavy, and full of small, vivid moments that feel lived-in and real.

Blending indie pop, Americana, neo-soul, soft R&B, and cinematic folk, Welcome Home introduces a whole new seasonal genre—warm, earthy, modern, and unforgettable.

This is the sound of coming back, slowing down, making peace, and letting gratitude speak quietly but clearly.

~ lyrics ~

i never expected you to come around
i didn’t know it would be this easy to turn my frown
upside down
but you came in and you swept me off my feet
when we’re together it feels like a movie scene

like indie film lovers
let’s lay under the covers 
spend endless time with one another
showing music to each other
let’s have a parked car convo
smiley faces drawn up on the window
let’s go from a to z, tell me what you feel for me

we’ll color everything 
don’t forget the in between 

i never expected you to come around
i didn’t know it would be this easy to turn my frown
upside down, upside down

like indie film lovers
let’s lay under the covers 
spend endless time with one another
showing music to each other
let’s have a parked car convo.
smiley faces drawn up on the window

we’ll color everything
i won’t forget the in between
we’ll color everything
it’s only you and me
i am little more than a whisper
a cool breeze
in the winter

I Don't Wanna See You Cryin' Anymore

To Everyone I've Loved Before

On April 3, 2020, Toronto’s Scott Hardware will be releasing Engel, his second full-length album, and first on Telephone Explosion Records. It will mark the end of a three-year process of writing, recording and letting down his guard (for better or worse.)

His last album, 2016’s Mutate, Repeat, Infinity, was the culmination of a years-long obsession with the HIV/AIDS crisis and how it was shaped by capitalism. Hardware’s early years after coming out were shaped by the courage of people close to him who were dealing with difficult diagnoses. 
 
“Looking at these situations from a macro/societal lens
must have been the only way I could process and share
those years of my life and my loved ones’ lives with an
audience” Hardware recalls. “From a writing and
production standpoint, I was trying to re-imagine various
eras of dance music and sound as urgent and vital as they would have in their heyday of the ‘80s and ‘90s.” 

These are artists who visualize monsters and demons hiding in plain sight. Like singing to dead queer ancestors on Mutate, Repeat, Infinity, Harwood is trying to make sense of another queer cross-to-bear, this time coming from within. The image is gory and difficult, not unlike the process of digging shame from one’s spirit. Engel, in its preoccupation with angels, the afterlife and private thoughts holds hands with the image.

This project is funded in part by FACTOR, the Government of Canada and Canada’s private radio broadcasters. Ce projet est financé en partie par FACTOR, le gouvernement du Canada et les radiodiffuseurs privés du Canada. www.canada.ca

Think Face

This song promotes a positive change in one's mindset after going through difficult times. It has a triumphant uplifting feel. Surfy guitars over a driving groove. Soft vocals interlacing with whispering harmonies and guitar flourishes.

I Don't Really Know
Loose Buttons
Something Better
2020

////////////////

I don’t really know
Whether five years ago
We thought this out
Time turns to doubt
And I’m ever down

Monumental or middling?
Will we read between the lines? 
Have you heard this old song before?
Should we be happy or resigned?
Try to peek inside a critic’s mind?
Or thank you for giving us the time?

I don’t really know
If in five years or so
We’ll figure out
Time turns to doubt
And I’m ever down

Where do we go from here
(Some one-star review)
Where do we go from here
(Start on something new)

////////////////

Recorded at Spaceman Sound in Brooklyn, NY
