KOBAYASHI IZUMI – Coconuts High

PtType SATC not-South-American and PtType S3003 da-da-da vocals. Oooh this is amazing. I do hope its all like this. WOW! Prog~~ Organ! SK Exotica!! mv 4/5 HNT 9/13 K: 0/10 (2) This starts with explosion sounds and Geto Chat Innit. And randomvox. Now we have a song. MV 4/5 HNT 9/13 K 0/10. I’m thinking so ‘an alternate timeline for prog-house’ Not what we were expecting but absolutely lovely. Chic Corea silliness at the end. (3) WOW – Subterranean bess, more ELP Organ, vocal oddness. Honestly, didn’t expect this to be a mostly-instrumental album BUT HNT 8/13 K 0/10 MV 4/5 (4) Out comes the sampler and we get our first proper song. This is the Mysterious End of the City Pop spectrum, with something that seems to share an origin point with Pinkie McLure if you can believe that. It is BEAUTIFUL. MV 3/5 HNT 8/13 K 3/10. Less mise-en-scene than actual music you go out to listen to. IN THE CANCELLED FUTURE, one kind of actually-existing dance music was going to sound like this. (5)[Writing a lot here] this one is Proper Exotic Disco and gets the first MV 5/5 plus HNT 9/13 and K 3/10. By the 3 minute mark it’s proper progressive jazz, super-complex and out-there. (6) Another SONG but as loopy as we’ve come to expect by now. I guess MV 2/5 K 1/10, HNT 8/13. Album actually turning into a legitimate favourite. (7) Now we go dub but with an accordion and a proper song (as if that matters) MV 4/5 HNT 9/13 K 3/10, Organ Swells like Schwab / Franco (8) Another song and another beauty; Brazillian-ish, SK-ish OH THANK YOU. (9) AND ANOTHER. What an album.
