Cheers i will give them a go!

but Takemura is very experimental. If you do like his stuff, you might also want to try the stuff on his own label called Childisc

Scope is brilliant.

Never heard it, I'll check it out.

I really like the stuff on dakini and childisc, thanks for the fingering pointing (in the right direction of course). I was over in Japan over christmas and was impressed the amount of underground electronica on sale there, even in the big capitalist money munching shops. lots of kids doing stuff there too. There are a sufficent amount of geeks into all sorts, sub cultures out of sub cultures!

geeks and misfits are the only human beings i can relate to, although i am not one of them

oh, sora - re.sort is a great album
i lost mine and now i have to buy it from here http://distribution.couchblip.com/
you can find Kazumasa Hashimoto - Yupi also

Yeah, if you listen to all the albums on the Plop label, you should really like what you're hearing.

Yoshihiro Hanno!!! got 9 mod's, and the Platform tracks. i am guessing that Platform is just a soundtrack to the movie.

thanks, i'm going to go download some of their songs when i get the chance. I've been looking for some good jap electronica but all anyone ever cares about is their rock and pop. drives me insane.
