Seiho posted this new song, “So Far,” yesterday, and it is definitely worth your time. It is the first track of his in a while not to feature some sort of mutated vocal sample – here, he just lets his electronics warp themselves around into a really colorful beat. Listen below.
Toyomu (or TOYOMU, probably should make a style guide for this blog) has been having himself quite a busy year. Souda, Kyoto is his fourth release of 2016, and that’s on top of live shows as far West as Tokyo (and not to mention that media attention). If each work of his has had a…
