The Daily Dig

A Central Asian psychedelic rarity from 1978. Formed in 1973 at the Uyghur Music Theater in Almaty, Soviet Kazakhstan, Yashlik ('youth') was led by Murat Akhmadiev and layered jazz arrangements, electric guitar, drums and synths over traditional Uyghur melodies and folk instruments. Originally released on Melodiya and circulated only within the USSR, it returns nearly half a century later as the debut release of new Uzbek label Maqom Soul.

1978 年的中亞迷幻奇珍。Yashlik 1973 年成立於蘇聯哈薩克阿拉木圖的維吾爾音樂戲劇院，團名意為「青春」，由 Murat Akhmadiev 領軍，在傳統維吾爾旋律與民族樂器間加入爵士編曲、電吉他、鼓組與合成器，創造獨特的中亞迷幻聲響。原由 Melodiya 發行、僅在蘇聯境內流通，相隔近半世紀成為烏茲別克新廠牌 Maqom Soul 的創廠首發再版。

Starting from the ragged guitar aesthetic of Sonic Youth and Dinosaur Jr., UK trio thistle. pack both their dreamy and furious sides into just six songs — Shoegaze haze, Dream Pop drift and Hardcore punch that the press has dubbed 'grungegaze'. They've opened for Humour and Westside Cowboy and picked up BBC Radio 1 and 6 Music airplay. 'backflip' swings between soft vocals, woozy synths and sudden bursts of distortion, with candid reflections on identity and vulnerability hiding behind the noise.

從 Sonic Youth、Dinosaur Jr. 的粗糙吉他美學出發，英國三人團 thistle. 這張六首歌的 EP 混合 Shoegaze 的朦朧音牆、Dream Pop 的飄渺與 Hardcore 的爆發力，被媒體稱為「grungegaze」。他們曾替 Humour、Westside Cowboy 暖場，BBC Radio 1、6 Music 皆有播放。《backflip》遊走於輕柔人聲、迷離合成器與突然炸開的失真吉他之間，噪音背後是對自我認同與脆弱情緒的坦率表達。

In early summer 2025, Otomo Yoshihide and Ami Yamasaki descended into a cavernous, hugely reverberant chamber deep inside Niigata's Uchinokura Dam. Solos in dialogue with the space, voice-and-guitar duets, and finally a 45-member 'Uchinokura Dam Orchestra' turn the whole dam into one unruly instrument. With no electronic processing at all, voices, breath, water and small object sounds echo and pile up into vast waves using only the room's natural reverb. Released by Niigata's Experimental Rooms as a 2LP limited to 300 copies.

2025 年初夏，大友良英與山崎阿弥來到新潟內之倉水壩，在壩體地下深處擁有巨大殘響的空間展開聲音實驗：從各自與空間對話的獨奏、人聲與吉他的二重奏，到 45 人組成的「內之倉水壩管弦樂團」，讓整座水壩化身巨大樂器。全程不經電子處理，純粹以空間的天然殘響讓人聲、呼吸、水聲與物件聲響交疊成壯闊浪潮。由新潟實驗廠牌 Experimental Rooms 發行，雙黑膠限量 300 張。

A dreamy guitar duet between former Kikagaku Moyo member Tomo Katsurada and Dutch musician Jonny Nash. Their collaboration began in 2024 when Katsurada invited Nash onto his debut EP 'Dream Of The Egg', and they've since performed together in churches, temples and festivals. Psychedelic, slightly distorted guitars soak into misty vocals — sometimes sweet as dream pop, sometimes like ambient folk in morning fog — the two guitar lines slowly entwining until they're nearly indistinguishable.

前幾何學模樣（Kikagaku Moyo）成員 Tomo Katsurada 與荷蘭音樂人 Jonny Nash 的吉他二重奏。兩人 2024 年因 Katsurada 首張 EP《Dream Of The Egg》開始合作，此後在教堂、寺廟與音樂祭共同演出。迷幻、略帶失真的吉他與濕潤人聲相互浸潤，時而甜美如 dream pop，時而像晨霧中的 ambient folk，兩把吉他的旋律緩緩交纏、幾乎難分彼此。

Haruomi Hosono's first new album in seven years from the founding member of Happy End and YMO blends gentle psychedelic folk with whimsical avant-pop — warm with old-soul wisdom yet bright with fresh ideas. The title comes from his long search for the right word, finally settling on the letter sign-off 'Sincerely' to dedicate the album, sincerely, to the listener.

Happy End 與 YMO 創始成員細野晴臣睽違 7 年的新專輯，把溫柔的迷幻民謠與帶點奇幻色彩的前衛流行揉在一起，既有老靈魂的溫暖，又有令人眼睛一亮的新鮮感。專輯名稱源自他遍尋不到貼切詞彙，最後選了信末常用的「Sincerely」，把這張專輯真誠獻給聽者。
