The Daily Dig

Nagoya band VUW recall the understated early days of yonawo and Suchmos. Steeped in R&B and soul, they favour a subtle groove over big rhythmic swings. Debut full-length Inner Moon takes the night as its theme across 10 songs, from late-night street excitement to solitary calm; 'Borderline' pairs a hazy voice with a gently pulsing groove, while 'Ease' adds a touch of free-jazz saxophone dissonance. Out January 27, 2027 — their first vinyl release.

來自名古屋的 VUW，初聽有點像 yonawo、Suchmos 初出茅廬時的低調氣質。深受 R&B、Soul 影響，不追求大幅度的身體律動，而以細膩的 Groove 悄悄牽引聆聽者。首張完整專輯《Inner Moon》以「夜晚」為主題，收錄 10 首歌，從深夜街頭的興奮到獨處的平靜；〈Borderline〉迷濛嗓音搭上微微鼓動的節奏，〈Ease〉則揉入幾分 Free Jazz 的薩克斯風頹靡。2027 年 1 月 27 日發行，首張黑膠作品。

French producer Onra's 2018 album Nobody Has To Know returns on a 2LP repress. Vintage synths, round basslines and smooth drum machines carry old-school R&B sweetness and languor alongside a crisp funk bounce. New Zealand multi-instrumentalist Lewis McCallum and Belgian musician Pomrad guest on a record themed around a secret love affair. The cover art is by Japanese illustrator Hiroshi Nagai.

法國製作人 Onra 2018 年專輯《Nobody Has To Know》確定再版！復古合成器、圓潤貝斯線條與流暢鼓機節奏，帶著老派 R&B 的甜美與慵懶，又有鮮明的放克律動。紐西蘭多樂器演奏家 Lewis McCallum 與比利時音樂人 Pomrad 參與，主題是一段不能公開的感情，曖昧又偷偷摸摸。封面出自日本插畫大師永井博之手。

Tenor saxophonist Akira Miyazawa's 1962 debut as leader is a landmark of early Japanese modern jazz, with Sadao Watanabe, Akira Nakano, Masahiko Satoh and Takeshi Inomata on board. Sax and brass trade lines between fluid melodies and tense improvisation. A keen angler, Miyazawa named it after the yamame stream trout and is pictured casting on the cover; originally self-titled, it took its current name on the 1977 reissue. Strong demand has prompted a third pressing.

1962 年日本次中音薩克斯風大師宮沢昭的首張個人領銜專輯，日本早期現代爵士的重要作品。渡辺貞夫、仲野彰、佐藤允彦、猪俣猛等名家參與，薩克斯風與銅管互相呼應，旋律流暢而即興充滿張力。宮沢昭熱愛釣魚，專輯名取自溪流魚種「山女魚」，封面正是他甩竿的身影；原名《Akira Miyazawa》，1977 年再發行時才改名。因需求熱烈，第三度壓片補貨。

The first joint album from nine-time Grammy winner Anderson .Paak and Grammy-nominated rapper Cordae, here in a limited THT-exclusive edition. It plays like a relaxed hang between friends rather than a calculated collaboration, yet digs into serious realities — brotherhood, family, and the laughter and creative spark only they can draw out of each other.

九座葛萊美得主 Anderson .Paak 與葛萊美提名饒舌歌手 Cordae 首張合作專輯，THT 獨家版本限量發行。聽起來像朋友間的輕鬆聚會，而非精心策劃的商業合作，卻在音樂裡談著嚴肅的現實——兄弟情誼、家庭，以及只有彼此才能激發的笑聲與創作火花。

Fukuoka four-piece Cobalt Boy's debut is built on sparkling guitar pop — critics compare them to early Teenage Fanclub, with flashes of city-pop brightness. Reportedly named by Keiichi Sokabe, the band is fronted by Yukitaka Mori's clear voice; 'Haru wo Matsu' has a bittersweet guitar hook, while 'fever' turns muddy and hazy. The 2021 original sold out fast; this blue-vinyl repress features cover art by illustrator Minahamu.

A legendary Japanese private-press rarity: originally limited to 100 copies in 1979, a rare gem of '70s Japanese psychedelic folk, now reissued on vinyl for the first time. The duo of Yasuo Yamada and Shigeki Kobayashi drew on British folk like Fairport Convention and The Albion Band as well as local boatmen's songs — vigorous chants and lonely laments intertwined with bluesy acoustic guitar. Reissued by California label First & Last Records.
