10th

Over the years Takemura's music has defied categorization. He compares his approach to that of a DJ as he uses the computer in the same way a DJ uses a turntable. In an approach similar to that of Mouse on Mars, Takemura's sound sources come from instruments, rather than computer generated sources. However, for 10th, Takemura handles everything with the only outside contribution coming in the way of lyrics from longitme associate Aki Tsuyuko. Inspired by the nature of Takemura's surroundings, Kyoto, Japan the record flows like a stream, twisting and turning in unexpected ways, ending peacefully in Lake Yago. So grab a copy and prepare to be transported to a magical world that could only exist in your mind.
