Surfing on Sine Waves [Complete Edition] [Cardboard Sleeve]Polygon WindowAphex's Most Techno Classic VersionThis is the album with the most classic techno rhythms by Richard D. James, better known as Aphex Twins (who later became known for more disruptive and experimental sounds). The original album is from 1993, with 9 tracks, and this Japanese reissue, from 2020, is the most complete, with 15 tracks (including the tracks from the Quoth' EP, also from 1993). Highly recommended for lovers of classic 90s techno, and bearing the hallmark of quality and originality of Richard D. James.

Henrik Schwarz, Dettmann, Wiedemann, etcMasse [Limited Low-priced Edition]Henrik Schwarz, Dettmann, Wiedemann, etcA great eclectic work of electronicmusicThis is a compilation album by artists Henrik Schwarz, Marcel Dettmann, Frank Wiedemann, and Din. It's a somewhat eclectic mix of electronic music in different styles: ambient, experimental, techno, and neoclassical. It's an album to listen to paying attention to the details, in a relaxed way, without anxiety or distractions... highly recommended if you can manage to find those moments.

Metallic Spheres In Colour [Blu-spec CD2]The Orb and David Gilmourmore immersive atmospheres by the orbThe Orb always creates beautiful, immersive atmospheres! On this album, Orb collaborates once again with David Gilmour (their previous collaboration was on the 2010 album "Metallic Spheres"). The virtuoso Gilmour contributes his guitar sounds, adding depth and spaciousness to these two excellent ambient/dub tracks. Note: This Japanese edition is in Blu-ray CD2 format, which enhances the sound quality of this disc, creating the perfect blend of immersive sounds and superior format quality.

For That Beautiful Feeling [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [Japan Bonus Track]The Chemical Brothersrhythms never stop with ChemicalThe Chemical Brothers are back with their winning formula, getting heads and feet moving to the rhythms of their songs. Always creating tracks within the Electro, House, Techno, and Big Beat styles... many intense and interesting sounds that keep them from repetitive and monotonous sequences... The Chemical Brothers always deliver that power that compels your ears to pay attention to every song they create. Casual listeners, collectors, and fans alike will not be disappointed by this album! Great work! Note: This Japanese edition includes two bonus tracks: "All Of A Sudden" and "I Want To Know."

PrismTHE ORBThe Orb did it again (and very well)Another great album from The Orb, with different sounds, styles, and atmospheres: tech house, progressive, dub, with a touch of reggae and ambient... but always with that rhythmic, harmonious, and refined sound that characterizes them. More than three decades have passed since their beginnings, but The Orb's music always sounds modern. Note: This Japanese edition includes two exclusive bonus tracks: "Living In Recycled Times (Edit)" and "Why Can You Be In Two Places At Once, When You Can’t Be Anywhere At All...Where’s Gary Mix (Edit)"

Strawberry Hotel [SHM-CD] [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)]UnderworldUnderworld never disappoints.It's another great album from the band. An album with richer atmospheres, more intimate, more vocalized, but still retaining their classic tech-house style. Time marches on for everyone, and artists reflect this in their compositions, which is good; this is a step in the right direction. And if we're in the mood for full tech-house and progressive house tracks, we can turn to their extensive back discography... but if we want to journey through sounds that harmoniously alternate between speed and calm, this is the album for us. Final Comment: This Japanese version is in SHM-CD format, which provides superior sound quality, and includes a bonus track called "Velvet Does"

12inch Collection Deluxe EditionDaryl Hall & John OatesHall & Oates & his 12-inch versions.An excellent 2-CD compilation of remix/extended versions of the greatest hits by Daryl Hall & John Oates, or simply Hall & Oates. It was originally released in Japan in 2003 on two separate CDs—the 12 Inch Collection and the 12 Inch Collection Vol. 2—and this 2018 Deluxe edition includes both CDs. The remix and extended versions are all original versions of the era; they are not modern remixes. For example, two versions of the hit "Out of Touch" and three versions of "I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)" are included. This compilation includes versions that are easy to find on other compilations, as well as other hard-to-find ones that had only been released on 12" vinyl, originals or promos, and here they are on CD for the first time. Therefore, this compilation is highly recommended for both casual fans and die-hard fans of Hall & Oates

kickin presents MIGHTY MAINSTREAM: DJ's Choice 1965-1973V.A.Roar Of The Red LionNot a bad track on this disc. Grinding organ, wailing sax, soaring flutes, soulful funk vocals, cool thumping bass lines with wah wah guitar. Punctuated with latino beats and borderline free jazz. Opening with Jack Wilkins’ excellent version of Red Clay you do get the feeling from the start this CD is going places! Admittedly there are a couple of track edits. However, to appease the purists these work very well. Not strictly mixed, there’s little to no pause between tracks. There’s thought in the track sequencing which allows the music to flow with ease, and not tiring on the listener. Excellent sound quality, and a fold out mini poster type inlay slip that features all the album covers. Closing with Charles McPhersons’ pleasing version of Johns Coltrane’s Naima . . .this compilation is 79 minutes & 30 seconds of pure delight. Vinyl is dead . . . long live CD ! !

Jaka Jaan feat. C&K / NAKAMA feat. AIZeddGreat Dragon Ball singleThis is a great single for those that like Dragon Ball Diama or like to collect singles. The sound quality is crystal clear and the packaging is quite attractive. Considering it only runs for about 15 minutes, the CD is somewhat expensive, but in the end, this is something only collectors would buy. If you really like the opening and ending songs, I highly recommend this CD.
