Heisei No Oto - Japanese Left-field Pop From The CD Age (1989-1996)

Order now! Mp3s & jpegs

Compiled by long-time friends of the label, Eiji Taniguchi and Norio Sato, Heisei No Oto delves into a world of music released almost exclusively on CD and brings together a fascinating selection of discoveries from a little known and overlooked part of Japan?s musical history. The last ten or so years have seen a global wave of interest in Japanese music encompassing ambient, jazz, new wave and pop records from the 1980s, some of which is increasingly considered the most innovative and visionary music of that time. Although some music from this period, in the form of ?City Pop? or ?rare groove? records, had been coveted by collectors and DJs for a number of years, most Japanese music from the time was little known outside and often even within Japan.
