Track List

16bit/44.1khz [wav/flac/aiff/alac/mp3]

Iku Sakan, originally from Osaka but now resident in Berlin, bridges both the Japanese and Western European experimental undergrounds. He has collaborated with Muneomi Senju of The Boredoms, Maher Shalal Hash Baz, Sun Araw and Damo Suzuki. Last year he released two cassettes for Natural Sciences and Planet Almanac (which was mastered by Don’t DJ), followed by the stunning LP “Prism In Us All” for Japan Blues. These picked up radio play on NTS and Beats In Space, with the LP being featured by Fourtet in his “Essential Mix”.
“Life Signs In Staccatissimo” is a single, 51 minute long track, showcasing Iku at his deepest and most hypnotic. I specifically requested Iku to record a long piece for the label, as I loved his music but felt that it just didn’t go on for long enough. For me it occupies the same deep joyous zones as tracks by Eliane Radigue, Gas or William Basinski. He will tour Europe this summer including a show at Café Oto.
