KIKAGAKU MOYO/幾何学模様. The name means GEOMETRIC PATTERNS in Japanese. This Tokyo band started channeling the spirits of the Japanese psychedelic underground in the summer of 2012, quickly developing the sound of ‘60s psychedelia to a breathtaking degree. Their debut album exerts an elemental power. Enlivening their sound with sitars, percussive drums, theremins, wind instruments and ethereal vocals, the band manages to sound powerfully spacious and lazily serene all at once. Their songs can be light as air, or heavy as earth. Many evolve out of intense experiences of engagement with the natural world. The album’s first track, “Can You Imagine Nothing?” was written over a night spent jamming on a suspended footbridge in remote mountains. As the song progressed the bridge began to sway, making band members feel as though they were floating weightless in midair. 

Drummer Go Kurosawa says that KIKAGAKU MOYO use sound to recreate passages in nature where natural geometric patterns appear, like snowflakes and honeycombs. The music also reflects patterns found in the mental state of hypnogogia, where one sees colors and patterns appear out of complete darkness. The simple, hypnotic drones on this album gradually unfold into complex polyrhythmic structures—fractal architecture for the ears. Each song builds on a direct yet otherworldly folk/psych vibe, evolving into a joyous, haunting, far-out and totally colorful tribal sound. Lysergic mind-expanding soundscapes, ghostly rhythms, clouds of uplifting fuzz, swirling guitar excursions into space, water-stained sitar licks and beautifully wasted vocals are guaranteed to send you. We say if you’ve dug bands like Amon Düül, Ghost, Can and the Flower Traveling Band, you should take a chance on Kikagaku Moyo.

lmao wtf! I thought this was only a one time pressing deal... I mean it doesn't make sense to say "one time first pressing" because that's obvious. Anywho, that's awesome more people will get to buy! I just wish I knew so I could have waited to spend the same 32$ the bundle came with. Cool colors with those individual releases!

 

 

For anyone that didn't order through mail order here are the first press deets

Hello Fanatics!

Just giving you all an update on the Kikagaku Moyo vinyl you have preordered. First off, thank you all for supporting our releases. We have a commitment to putting out some choice jams and believe me, the jams are getting sweeter by the day.

For these Kikagaku Moyo records we wanted to do things a little differently, so we only ordered the amount of records we received preorders on. Because we wanted to keep the special, special, we produced this record in multiple limited editions. You will receive one of several different vinyl configurations. Each configuration is being pressed in exactly the same numbers. They will be shipped at random-- no holds or requests.

Question: How many did you make??? Answer: We won't disclose, but it isn't very many! Details of the package are as follows:

Kikagaku Moyo S/T will be housed in a silver foil stamped 350g heavyweight reverseboard jacket and pressed on 160g vinyl in either clear and silver (Haze) or a pink and white (A-side/B-side). You will receive one of the two vinyl configurations.

Kikagaku Moyo Mammatus Clouds will be contained in a gold foil stamped 350g heavyweight reverseboard jacket and pressed on 160g vinyl in either clear and gold (Haze) or aqua blue and white (A-side/B-side). You will also receive one of these two vinyl configurations.

Stoked??? We are! At this time, we have given the green light to the plant to proceed. You should be receiving your orders in due time. We will be sending out another email before then confirming that you still live at the address you gave when you placed your order. Sound good? Good!

All the best,

Ben, Captcha HQ
