The Daily Dig

An Afrobeat legend produced by Fela Kuti, who also adds keyboards to the title track. The sole solo album by Afrika 70 saxophonist Lekan Animashaun, recorded in 1977 amid Nigeria's military crackdown as a direct response to the head of state's speech telling Black people to keep a 'low profile.' Cut in '77 but only released by Kalakuta in 1995, now reissued by Strut Records and remastered by The Carvery.

Afrobeat 傳奇之作，由 Fela Kuti 擔任製作，並在同名曲中加入鍵盤。Afrika 70 薩克斯風手 Lekan Animashaun 於 1977 年錄製的唯一個人專輯，誕生於奈及利亞軍政高壓年代，回應元首要求黑人「低調」的演說。雖 1977 年便已開錄，卻直到 1995 年才由 Kalakuta 廠牌正式發行，此次由 Strut Records 再版並重新母帶處理。

Thai dream pop darling Pami, known for her sweet, melancholy voice, returns with a blue vinyl 7-inch pulling two cuts from last year's debut puffette. The B-side 'covent garden' wraps a candied melody around a shoegaze haze that creeps in by the second half — likely to fly off shelves the way the LP did.

來自泰國的當代 Dream Pop 女神 Pami，以甜美哀愁嗓音著稱。這張藍色彩膠 7 吋收錄兩首來自去年首張專輯《puffette》的曲目，B 面〈covent garden〉外層包裹甜膩糖衣，後半卻隱隱透出 Shoegaze 的迷幻暈眩，繼黑膠秒殺後想必也會非常搶手。

Taiwanese singer Wooly (Yang Yi-rong) — already dubbed a 'new generation Shibuya-kei' voice by Japanese press — covers SATELLITE LOVERS' classic 'Best Friend' in Japanese, produced by Yopeco of sucola. The A-side is a brand-new song written for her by RYUSENKEI's Kunimondo Takiguchi. Released on vinyl by Kissing Fish Records, home to Pami and Natsu Summer.

台灣歌手 Wooly（楊宜蓉）以日文翻唱 SATELLITE LOVERS 名曲〈Best Friend〉，由 Yopeco（sucola）製作；A 面則邀來 RYUSENKEI 的 #クニモンド瀧口 為她寫下全新曲〈内緒だよ〉。日媒譽為「新世代澀谷系」代表，黑膠由曾發行 Pami、Natsu Summer 的 Kissing Fish Records 推出，是今夏不能錯過的一張 7 吋。

The duo of filmmaker Sora Hokimoto (vocals) and veteran musician Tsuyoshi Kikuchi (keys) has swept Japan with a unique soul-jazz-J-pop hybrid built on literary lyrics and an operatic vocal that vaults across octaves between head and chest voice. Includes the closing theme to Japanese drama What Did You Eat Yesterday? S2 and the theme song to the Haruka Ayase film Route 29 — reissued on heavyweight 30cm vinyl after last year's pressing sold out instantly.

由電影導演甫木元空（Vo.）與資深音樂家菊池剛（Key.）組成的雙人組 Bialystocks，以靈魂、爵士與 J-Pop 跨界橫掃日本樂壇。極富文學感的歌詞，加上主唱跨越數個八度、宛如歌劇般自由切換的真假音，被譽為「當代最不能錯過的頂級現場實力派」。收錄日劇《昨日的美食 S2》〈幸せのまわり道〉、電影《Route 29》主題曲〈Mirror〉，此次以 30cm 重量盤再版。

The moment she opens her mouth, the air fills with murmured French and an intoxicating psychedelic haze. POiSON GiRL FRiEND (Noriko Sekiguchi)'s 1992 Japanese indie landmark — recently re-excavated by underground club scenes in Europe, the Americas and Asia and given a high-scoring Pitchfork retrospective — is reissued by Sad Disco on stunning translucent red vinyl. Features CMJK, Neko Saito and Makoto Otsu, plus covers of Mary Hopkin's 'Those Were the Days' and Jane Birkin's 'Quoi.'

她一開口，空氣裡就灑下法語軟呢與令人耽溺的迷幻毒霧。POiSON GiRL FRiEND（關口紀子）1992 年震撼日本獨立樂界的經典代表作，近年在歐美、亞洲地下 Club 圈被大肆重新挖掘並獲 Pitchfork 經典回顧高分。集結 CMJK、齋藤ネコ、大津真等豪華陣容，並翻唱 Mary Hopkin〈THOSE WERE THE DAYS〉與 Jane Birkin〈QUOI〉。透明紅彩膠由 Sad Disco 再版。

Zimbabwe-born, London-based percussionist Lori Vambe taught himself drums and co-founded The Healing Drums of Brixton. His invented instrument 'drumgita' (drum-guitar) opens fissures that feel previously non-existent yet still echo African drum traditions and minimalist landscapes. This is the first of two 1982 home recordings made by tape collage — a musique concrète document where tradition, modernity and the future advance together.

打擊樂手 Lori Vambe 出生於辛巴威，1959 年搬到倫敦，自學打鼓並與當地藝術家成立表演藝術團體 The Healing Drums of Brixton。Vambe 從發明專屬樂器「drumgita」（鼓吉他）開始，讓聲音自工具製作就生出好似不曾存在過的縫隙，卻也能察覺非洲鼓傳統與極簡主義的風景。此為 1982 年的宅錄，透過操作磁帶反覆拼貼，形成具象音樂精神的傳統、現代、未來並進之作。

The second of Lori Vambe's 1982 home recordings, continuing the exploration of his self-built 'drumgita' (drum-guitar) through layered tape collage. A musique-concrète meditation where African drum tradition meets minimalist landscapes, advancing tradition, modernity and future at once.

辛巴威打擊樂手 Lori Vambe 於 1982 年完成的第二張宅錄，承續自製樂器「drumgita」（鼓吉他）的探索，透過磁帶反覆拼貼建立非洲鼓傳統與極簡主義交錯的聲音地景。具象音樂精神之作，傳統、現代與未來並進。

Jeff Parker's ETA IVtet, recorded live in August 2025 at LA's Lodge Room — a document made after their longtime residency at ETA shut down. The Parker family had been displaced for eight months by the Eaton Fire and Trump's return to power had piled on pressure for many, but after playing to a 400-person crowd Parker wanted to call this 'Happy Today': a quiet, joyful flicker of hope amid the murk.

Jeff Parker 領軍的樂團 ETA IVtet，於 2025 年 8 月在洛杉磯 Lodge Room 舉辦現場錄音演出。這張《Happy Today》是樂團在長期駐場的 ETA 歇業後的紀錄。2025 年 Parker 一家因伊頓火災被迫搬遷長達八個月，加上川普重新執政，令許多人面臨巨大生活壓力——然而在四百位觀眾面前演出後，他想將這場稱為「Happy Today」，於昏暗未明中仍能看見希望的平靜歡愉。

Aki Onda's tribute to Nam June Paik. While in residence at the Nam June Paik Art Center in Korea in 2010, Onda picked up sounds on a handheld radio that felt like signals from Paik's spirit, and built a project around them. He went on to make field recordings in Seoul, Cologne, Wrocław and the US — broadcasts from an unknown elsewhere, kept nearly unedited, echoing Paik's ties to shamanic culture and the radio as conduit for hidden transmissions. Commissioned by documenta 14 in 2017 and broadcast on eight radio stations worldwide.

藝術家 Aki Onda 向白南準（Nam June Paik）的致敬之作。2010 年 Aki 在韓國白南準藝術中心駐留期間，透過一台手持收音機意外錄到類似「來自白南準靈魂」的聲音，並以此展開創作。隨後在首爾、科隆、弗羅茨瓦夫與美國等地進行一系列彷彿接收宇宙訊號的錄音，幾乎未經剪輯，呼應白南準與薩滿文化的關聯，以及收音機作為未知祕密廣播的媒介。2017 年受 documenta 14 委託製作，並透過全球八個電台播出。
