Comment:
Oshi Kito is a musician of Japanese heritage though he is not making
music with the influences of J-pop, anime or Japanoise, at least on
this 4-track issue which gets clocked in at a 17-minute. I guess the
aforementioned styles are the most represented ones from the arrogant
westerner`s view though depending on a viewer`s personal preferences
undoubtedly. Oshi Kito`s music is inflected by dub, and exquisite
broken rhythms which used to wobble and change its pace due those
bold synthesised frequencies and rattling drums invoking the sense of
drum and bass, and breakbeat (especially at Fauld). At Fauld
those synthesizers used to chime like being conjured up by ghastly
cats of whom you have no wish to meet otherwise altogether. Indeed,
the more you listen to it the more one`s understanding and
categorization of the issue is getting blurred, especially if you do
listen to such tracks as Kuishi Katika. and Drop Moon.
The former of them chimes like an art house journey where the
metallic beats used to twist and swing thereof somehow reminiscent of
such artists as Cagey House, and Oneothrix Point Never`s R Plus
Seven (2013). The latter one exploits uncanny high tones which
used to sound like being produced on a keytar atop downright rough
bass sequences to create a new intriguing universe. The marvellous
issue is a part of the discography of Fusion Netlabel.
