OMINIRA 013LP

"If you slide in on Bisk's homepage, you will see at the very top it says 'Good Electronic Music' -- a brave, and foremost, true statement. Being an active producer since 1996 Bisk has released seven albums, and after a 12-year hiatus he returned again in 2012. Bisk's eighth album is Vacation Package on Ominira. Vacation Package consists of eight eclectic tracks, their origins being traced back to several performances taking place at radical live music venue Forestlimit, Tokyo, in late 2019 and early 2020. Reinterpreted, reconstructed, sawed into pieces, Bisk presents his own fragmented interstellar funk: ultramodern yet effortlessly cool and timeless, with a slight relaxed nonchalance. Warm, groovy basslines centering stretched out cosmic colors, gliding melodies and vocals. Bisk's play with rhythms and his intense, at times rather sparse, drops of beats makes the pace so speedy that, contrary, the record seems to go in ultrarapid -- taped so fast it actually plays to the listener in slow motion. Bisk presents a sincere and emotive collection of work with Vacation Package. Funky and slick, without the cheese."

"Our Japanese spearhead is back with a 4th album filled with a new hip-hop like taste... Just a little something, floating over the hectic musical universe from Bisk. Sometimes danceable, concrete and beautifully mad, contemporary and contradictory. To summarize: another 100% Bisk album. Naohiro Fujikawa aka Bisk proposes you to ride a rocket aimed to the planet of grooves. Put on your space suit and get 'crazy-groovy-fied' by these deconstructed sonic sculptures based on beats, tenderness [sometimes], floating voices of soul, of course an inimitable skill and taste for the hardest way to reach a melody. Sometimes more accessible than the previous opus, but still in a pure Bisk style: unpredictable and sophisticated. Another immersion into the sublime and contradictory world of this unique Japanese artist, as always everything is possible...if beats are the basis of this new plot, acoustic sounds, contemporary touches, naive little soundscapes, loungy bad manners and more surprises are ready to transform your daily life in a unpredictable way. Another piece to the incredible musical jigsaw-puzzle started with his precedent releases."
