Comment: by watching this list of a huge amount
of tags wrote down above it implies a vary-coloured nature of this 16-track
issue. Indeed, the main spots are `electronic` – ranging from refreshing
alternative pop expressions and stereophonic fireworks to remarkably harsher,
even abstract synthesised glimpses, with more or less bellying, protuberant
rhythms; `ambient` - with or without drones, at times knee-deep and spacey, at
times more morose, glitch-draped and noise-soaked; `classical` - at the time it
does mean mutant classical music where the axial term is buried under other,
electronic-induced elements. The only exception is a Finnish singer-songwriter,
Violeta Päivänkakkara, though, make that this time her track (Sya; the compilation also includes the
video version of it) chimes significantly more electronically than she commonly
used to do. Additionally, there are represented such artists as sanmi, AUCHRE,
Gallery Six, Rawpass, Senna, Makoto Masui, Nankotsuteacher, N-qia, --memor2,
Yoshitaka Hikawa, SHOMOMOSE, Y:E:T, and gift. All in all, it is an excellent
introduction to the Japanese label elementperspective. Great.
