Comment: Recent Music Heroes is back again at a
notch of the roster of Mimi Records. This time the Japanese collective Table Music Meeting`s
2-track/single issue provides many associations and creates a fine frame of
mind. Although the release is described as “electronica” at the Portuguese
imprint`s site it is half true at least only. Mostly it is guitar driven
folk-tinged music which frequently draws upon droning, however, being saturated
with minute yet delicate electronic and free and easy glockenspiel-based
fringes. Between these two components you could perceive much air to be
flitting around in thereby furnishing the exertion with the organic slide. By
its intention the outing could be tagged as “chill out (chill folk?)” music
because it calms down the listener providing him/her a virtuous buffer against
daily problems he/she encounters. Additionally I recommend to listen to the likes of Oto, Nick Rivera, Plusplus, Possimiste, 2muchachos, Junya Nishimura, Koji Maruyama.
