v stoked for this, releasing 12/2 - seems like a special project to celebrate one of the goats
| | |
oh wow, this is cool
I really should delve a little deeper into the Sak, but Thousand Knives Of is a proper bop and Async has some lovely moments
| | |
my heart stopped there for a moment, but seems he's still around and working. fantastic catalogue. one of the most important figures in electronica ever.
excited for the compilation

Ryuichi is one of the greatest composers of the last 100 years, bar none. Can't wait to hear this, the Thundercat reimagining slaps and I wanna hear what a longtime collaborator like Alva Noto is going to do with Sheltering Sky.

Yeah sorry for the false death flags lmao. Homie is still fighting! I almost put “(not dead)” in the title.

YOU BASTARDS I THOUGHT HE'D DIED FOR A SECOND THERE
| | |
I'm excited for the Hildur rendition
| | |
pumped for Cornelius’ contribution too. really great little comp < 3
