kamalatapes Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 http://www.patient-sounds.com/#!psv004---hakobune---seamless-and-here/c4ay /500 5 colors are, Coke Bottle Green, Transparent Orange (they call it gold), Transparent Pink, Opaque White (cloud), Clear (air) "Hakobune (ha-koh-boo-nay) is the ever prolific Takahiro Yorifuji, from Japan. As Hakobune, Takahiro has released an incredible library of ambient music, composed on electric guitar. Eschewing the laborious single-note, long form "drone" expectations that have saturated the ambient genre, Takahiro instead focuses on dynamic shifting melodic phrases that overlap, shimmer, flow in and out of eachother, and ultimately, make for an enveloping, atmospheric listen. "Seamless and Here," the first proper international full length LP by Hakobune, finds Takahiro, not making a statement so much as just doing what he does best. These compostions are tight, but billow like a sheet in the wind. They are concise, but retain an air of mystery.This pressing, an edition of 500, comes in 5 colorways; editions of 100 each. Each colorway comes with a 150gm 12" record in a recycled cardboard jacket, and download codes. Each record also comes with a 12x18 poster featuring color-coded artwork corresponding to the respective colorway of the record. All 500 records come with pink labels with gold print." _stretts and 6heart6breaker6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
