Product Description
This is the label's first compilation album, released to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Linus Records, the record shop that operates Preco Records, and the 10th release from Preco Records. The lineup includes artists who have previously released works through Preco, such as miaou, aus, Motoro Faam, fredricson, and ent; cokiyu and Miyauchi Yuri from aus's label flau; ryonkt, the solo project of Ryo Nakata, the head of Sapporo's Slow Flow Rec who has also released works on numerous overseas labels; Elly the Sun, the solo project of synthesizer pianist Elly, the head of Wonderyou and also active in the female duo neohachi (her first solo release); NETWORKS, whose 2010 debut album "White Sky" released on Wonderyou was a great success; and Hopeless Local Marching Band, a new band formed by Kentaro Togawa (aka The Retail Sectors), who heads Symbolic Interaction. Many Japanese artists who have released high-quality works not only on their own but also through their label activities are participating and have received high praise both domestically and internationally. This compilation album is perfect as an introduction to the diverse and evolving music scene, encompassing everything from electronica and poppy electronica with vocals to post-rock, ambient/drone, and post-classical. It also offers high-quality tracks that will satisfy even the most discerning core music fans. Each track is a new song, remix, or new version exclusive to this album. The Miyauchi Yuri remix of cokiyu was originally included as a bonus at the release party for cokiyu's first album, but this time it's not the same audio, but a newly remixed 2011 version by Miyauchi Yuri.
