TAKAMI-夢ノ崖 (CLIFF OF DREAM), LP, 1985, JAPAN



The second of two collaborations between Japanese chanteuse Takemi and kosmiche synth maven Pneuma, these highly evocative and oh-so-Japanese electronic environments brim with a very specific sorta tension that's also found in other Japanese electronic relics from this era that I've shared in the past, like Dada's Castle Wall, with the way that it frontages passages of stately Japanese formalism against soaring outbursts of space rock, though in the case of Cliff Of Dream, that outburst is left for the finale. En route, you'll find passages as fussy as a royal court garden while other bits lap up against twinklingly psychoactive shores in the mode of the Hideki Matsutake/Chojuri Kondoj/Masushi Kamutsubara-Edo album that I've previously shared.

  2. He may mean that the DL isn't happening on Rapidshare. Happening to me too – just waiting, then nothing actually happens (eventually the webpage times out).

    Rapidshare has become such a bitch to use. Or at least inconsistent.

  7. Many year ago I sold this LP and I missed it a bit. So nice to see it here in your blog again. Still some strange but nice music.
