On Wa Wave: New Wave Sounds from the Land of the Rising Sun vol. 2, various Japanese artists push deeper into the margins of 80s New Wave, blending Kraut‑tinted repetition, minimal synth, and glass‑fragile chamber pop into a set of tracks that feel like dispatches from a parallel underground.

On Wa Wave: New Wave Sounds from the Land of the Rising Sun vol. 1, various Japanese artists are rescued from flexi‑disc oblivion, weaving a sharp, off‑kilter panorama of New Wave, No Wave and skeletal electronics from the most radical corners of Japan’s underground.

On Romancing The Music, Hip-See-Kid reanimates Japanese New Wave as a jittery, neon‑lit fever dream: punk‑funk basslines, soul‑scarred melodies and splashy jazz inflections squeezed into a compact mini‑LP that feels like a lost 80s club classic beamed into the present.

Some 42 years after its initial release, Circle X’s Prehistory returns to the vinyl format. New listeners to this music will discover, in addition to the roiling compulsion in its odd, dance-damaged clockwork and instinctive joining of feral and aestheticized values, a refined understanding of the width andbreadth of “post-punk” music, both in and out of its time. In and out of time, Circle X operated between 1978 and 1995, formed in Louisville, KY, but existing largely as a New York-based colle…

A bizarrely entrancing jewel from the depths of the Japanese underground, Doo Dah Nean was originally released in small run of hand assembled cassettes by the La Musica label in the late 90’s. The album is the sole release and evidence of Nean, an entirely under-the-radar trio that crossed the sensual, disassociated female vocals of Japanese iroke kayōkyoku music with off-balance shamanic rhythm and echoing electronic rumble. Nean were the trio of Yui on bass and electronics, Naoko on voice, and…
