国産アンビエント/ミニマル・ミュージックの秘宝と呼ばれ、海外からの評価も非常に高い打楽器奏者、高田みどりの1983年のソロ作が、アメリカのPALTO FLATSとスイスのWE RELEASE WHATEVER THE FUCK WE WANT RECORDSから共同でアナログLP盤再発!!! ニューエイジ鏡面世界的な美しい音のレイヤー体験は、音楽を聴く集中快感を蘇らせてくれるかのようです! Palto Flats & WRWTFWW Records are proud to announce the highly-anticipated reissue of Japanese percussionist Midori Takada's sought after and timeless ambient / minimal album "Through The Looking Glass", originally released in 1983 by RCA Japan. Considered a Holy Grail of Japanese music by many, "Through The Looking Glass" is Midori Takada's first solo endeavor, a captivating four-song suite capturing her deep quests into traditional African and Asian percussive language and exploring contemplative ambient sounds with an admirably precise use of marimba. The result is alternatively ethereal and vibrant, always precise and mesmerizing, and makes for an atmospheric masterpiece and an unparalleled sonic and spiritual experience. The fully licensed reissue is available both in its original form as a single 33rpm LP and a limited 45rpm 2×12" (this version is exclusive to WRWTFWW,) both cut directly from the original studio reels (AAA), at Emil Berliner (formerly the in-house recording department of renowned classical record label Deutsche Grammophon) for the 45rpm DLP, and at the equally famous Frankfurter SST Studio for the LP. It is also available in CD format for the first time. All versions come with liner notes, with extended quotes from Ms. Takada. (PALTO FLATS) 1. Mr. Henri Rousseau's Dream 2. Crossing 3.
