The Daily Dig

The holy grail for Boards of Canada devotees: 1995's self-released Twoism, rawer and more primitive than the later Music Has The Right To Children. Original vinyl is extremely rare and long fetched huge sums secondhand. Nostalgic synth textures, distorted samples and rugged ambience make it an essential piece of their evolution — finally back in stock via this official reissue.

Boards of Canada 鐵粉心中的聖杯，1995 年自主發行的《Twoism》，比後來的《Music Has The Right To Children》更早、更原始、更粗糲。原版黑膠極度稀有，多年來在二手市場被炒到天價。懷舊的合成器紋理、失真取樣與粗獷氛圍，是理解他們音樂演化不可或缺的一塊拼圖。這次官方再版終於補貨。

One of the most legendary and mysterious albums in Japanese psychedelic rock history, coveted by collectors worldwide.

Issued here on limited transparent yellow vinyl.

Spanning jazz rock, fusion and electronic experimentation, it showcases Fukamachi's boundless creative energy — reissued on clear purple vinyl.

Across those years she married, had two children, took over her family's temple in Hiroshima, and lost her husband, the band's double bassist. Choseki feels like a record only possible after that long passage — never over-dramatizing grief, but singing daily life and those still present back into song. CD out this January, vinyl in November.

Now finally reissued on vinyl after a decade.

Sydney indie-pop band Bridge Dog, led by Grace Ha and Brian Park, has shared stages with Aya Kaneko and DYGL.

Issued on vinyl for the first time by Tokonoma Records.
