Kikaguku Moyo "Kikagaku Moyo" on Cosmic Eye

We are excited to announce the debut KIKAGAKU MOYO
release, a co-production of Cosmic Eye and Sound Effect Records. Just released
as a Bandcamp download in May 2013, it impressed us so much with its awesome
otherworldliness, to the point of requiring instant vinyl availability.

KIKAGAKU MOYO (Geometric Patterns in japanese) started in the summer of 2012 in Tokyo
attempting to recreate the spirit of the early 70s japanese psychedelic
underground. And they have perfected the art of late 60s influenced psychedelia
to breathtaking levels. They enrichen this gentle sound with the use of sitars,
percussive drums, theremins, wind instruments and charming female vocals, to
the point of sounding powerfully spacious and lazily calm at the same time. And
they achieve such levels of invention, to not be labelled traditional
revivalists but creators of a modern electric music for the mind and body.

There's a beautiful simplicity to this album no matter
how far-out it may sound. Each song builds on a formula of direct yet
otherworldly folk/psych vibe to subconsciously evolve into a joyous, haunting,
and totally colourful, tribal far-out music. Lysergic mind-expanding
landscapes, ghostly rhythms, clouds of uplifting fuzz, swirling guitar
excursions into space, water-stained sitar licks and beautifuly wasted vocals
guarantee a floating magic carpet ride to the galaxy. KIKAGAKU MOYO are on
their own deserted island, gazing the cosmos, hallucinating the million details
of the One and firing them right back at us.

LP version is pressed on high quality vinyl and comes out
in a limited edition of 350 copies. The coloured
copies come in brown with orange and yellowish speckles.
