Blair Thaumic Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 We talk a lot about forest and sometimes Suomi here, but how about the Japan-Australia connection? Loads of alternative psy-music that doesn't sound like anything else has come out of those two countries... on the Australian side, Psy-Harmonics, WMS, Demon Tea, and Edgecore, and on the Japanese side, Equinox, Anoyo, and Panorama for example. And those are just the well known labels; then you get into really obscure stuff like this: http://www.discogs.com/Various-Mesmerise-Em/release/727162 http://www.discogs.com/Various-Autumn-Jade/release/642827 Any favorite Aussies or Japanese (besides Ubar Tmar, I think we all know his music) that in your opinion fell through the cracks? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alek Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I've always been fond of Psy-Harmonics and their approach to breaking the rules and trying new shit... fuck it, we'll just record this track with acoustic drums, etc. But there never was anything that blew me the fuck away completely... a few tracks came close, but there was always something missing to bump it over to the next level, and thinking back what was missing was mostly coherency.

Besides the fact that I disagree with all of this, perhaps you should really give the compilation "Iconic" a try... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anoebis Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 The masters of weird music were definately Devic Craft Records... I loved them back then, and I still listen to their stuff once in a while... A pitty this kind of psychedelic music died out. It brought diversity!http://www.discogs.com/label/9907-Devic-Craft-CordingsDamn, and stuff like this http://www.discogs.com/Eraser-vs-Y%C3%B6jalka-Sense-Melter/release/75026 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anoebis Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 The Scozbor is in my top 5 ever weirdo albums, the second part is VERY fast, a little 8 bit like, but I love it. Funny, out of the box and weird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoebis Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Ah yes, Scozbor = Odd Harmonic by the way Here is some other great weirdo stuff:http://www.discogs.com/label/42776-Dada-Stream-Publishingthe odd Harmonics - Intensive Hinderance is...

Blair Thaumic Posted August 24, 2015 Author Share Posted August 24, 2015 Anyone heard this? http://www.discogs.com/Various-Paranoia-Loops-1/release/4255078 It's on the same label that released Ree.K - Far East Frequency, so might be worth a look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the goa constrictor Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I have not but you might also dig on Qub3 records http://www.discogs.com/label/1166-Qube Those 12"s were real special back in the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psytones Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Everything from Yamabikaya (Japan) is Love. They wjere real musicians making minimal psytrance. So live, they had a full band. The album "The Arrival" released on Shiva Space Technology is defo on my top 5 list of albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That first Yamabikaya 12" off of Shiva Space Technology is still a favorite of mine. Perfect dark mountain forest music. In fact, I hate that genre "Forest Psy" as I think it's entirely misleading. Yamabikaya is what Forest Psy sounds like. Generic Dark Psy is not resembling of a forest... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoebis Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Well, and even releases of 2 months ago never made it to Psynews... here is another obscure japanese one...
