VARIOUS ARTISTS: “Somewhere Between: Japanese Mutant Pop” limited purple 2LP. Released 5th March 2021

Somewhere Between: Mutant Pop, Electronic Minimalism and Shadow Sounds of Japan 1980-1988

Expertly curated by Yosuke Kitazawa and Mark “Frosty” McNeill (dublab), Somewhere Between is a collection of music, much of it released for the first time outside Japan, that is bound more by energetic vibration than shared history, genre or scene. They are the sounds of transition and searching—a celebration of the freedom found in floating.
