Minamo Tokyo, Japan
In 1999, the electro-acoustic group Minamo was formed by Keiichi Sugimoto and Tetsuro Yasunaga.
In 2000, minamo’s
self-released CD-R “wakka” was reissued by the New York label Quakebasket.
This release was selected by Matmos as one of best sounds in 2001 in The Wire magazine. In 2001 two new members joined, Yuiichiro Iwashita (guitar) and Namiko Sasamoto (sax, organ), to make the band a quartet.

Superstition
by Minamo & Moskitoo
supported by 44 fans who also own “Beautiful”
I put this album on during a morning walk. Grey. Still. Superstition was the perfect soundtrack for it. It's mixing & mastering is superb. Moskitoos vocals were so so patient and gentle, and I begged for more.

Abysma

“Abysma” is headphone music for quiet nights, conducive to solitary listening. This begs for a dance party, even if you’re the only participant.

Such a gorgeous collection of subtle, reflective sonic gems, and a beautiful collaborative effort. The tracks meander peacefully but not without purpose, and light up and glow like stars on a clear night. As always with 12k releases, the artwork can set the tone so eloquently. Take some time out to familiarize yourself with this gently mood-elevating recording.
