Flyrec. 10th Anniversary

If there's a common thread connecting the artists signed to Japan's Flyrec. label, it's that they demand close listening. There's Luis Nanook, a duo that pairs hushed singer-songwriter Tsutomu Satachi with ambient electronic musician Chihei Hatakeyama; Trico!, Rie Yoshihara's vehicle for spare compositions played on toy piano and accordion; or Tomoyoshi Date, who specialises in transmogrifying acoustic instruments into intricately textured ambient electronica. All three will be present for the 10th anniversary celebrations of the label's first release, as will Hidenobu Ito – the minimal house producer responsible for said release – and a selection of kindred spirits, among them post-rock-classical-breakcore savant World's End Girlfriend and FliFla, Keiichi Sugimoto's pop-tinged electronica project.
