I would assume it is because of the different labels, my local shop sells those albums for quite cheaply (but they sell albums like mdk and ka which cost nearly double), they are on 'charly' or something similar to that. The quality is still the same, but Udu Wudu doesn't come in the digi pack. Also with the one disc live, you are only really missing out on about 15mins of material. p.s. you need to dl 'winzip' |

Here's a free .zip program. Get the .exe file. it's very easy - just click on it and it should unpack itself. To open the download after that, just right click on your file and choose "Open With" and click 7 Zip

Has anybody heard these two beauties:
Teddy Lasry 'Seven Stones'
Hiatus 'Avant-Demain'
?
Both Five Star zeuhl rarities. Wish I knew how to convert LPs to mp3 (on the cheap)

Speak of Bondage Fruit, I just saw on the main page a review of V by one of my favourite reviewers and a very nice guy, John Davie:

Glad you are all enjoying The Fruit! Kido Natsuki is an absolute authority on World Music and possibly the most skillful guitarist I ever saw. He was on national TV in Japan just last week talking about a Hungarian musical child prodigy. A very modest chap, to boot.
There label (run out of Katsui Yuuji's bedroom) is just down the road from me. Less than 1 minute! If anyone is having problems finding their albums just pop off an e-mail to Maboroshi no Sekai (Phantom's World) as they rely on word-of-mouth and don't have any significant backing.
All their albums are strong but IV and VI are mind-shattering.

Hello all! I`ll probably go back and read this whole thread!
If you`re bored, check out my video`s of underground Japanese bands, including:
Ruins alone
Koenjihyakkei
Yoshida Tatsuya + Ishibashi Eiko
Acid Mothers Temple SWR
I know... all Yoshida projects. But they`re pretty good!

Thanks! Oh you`re from Japan too? Do-mo! I`m not Japanese though, I just grew up here, and am now going to college in Kyoto. So you`ve witnessed some Japanese zeuhl?

これから宜しくお願い致します☆
Lived in Japan for a few years (Tokyo) and seen some great live shows! Was working at a live-house near Shinjuku for a year and their schedule was 50% underground (Koenjihyakkei, Le Silo, Ruins, Cicala Mvta, Bondage Fruit et al on a regular basis) and 50% 'idol' events (tons of young beauties). Couldn't go wrong apart from the salary.
Became good friends with Miyako Kanazawa (Le*Silo) through that gig. Amazing chick!

The link to Eider Stellaire is broken! And I can't find anywhere else to buy or sample it. Unless I find it on eBay, I'll never hear them! |

It seems like every BONDAGE FRUIT album is different from the rest,and this certainly is no exception.2 songs make up this record including the almost 30 minute title track.There are no vocals on this one,and Cesar Inca makes a good point that this record seems to have been influenced by Post-rock.The two long songs allow the band to add or take away sounds at their leisure, and so we get a lot of repetition like some of the Krautrock i love.As l listened to this record many times, i didn't think of Post-rock or Krautrock,these guys have the ability to make whatever style of music they play their very own.These two songs are very different from one another,the first being dark and powerful while the second fits neither of those adjectives, but does incorporate more variety and is brighter. "Skin" opens with electronic? sounds that last for the first 5 minutes,they are joined by violin a minute in.2 1/2 minutes in the drums arrive, and the guitar comes in at 4 minutes.The first 5 minutes are slow moving, and the instruments mentioned really create no melodies as they come and go,playing slowly and briefly each time.It's 5 minutes in when the heaviness arrives, as a still slow and powerful soundscape takes over.The drums are very heavy while the guitar is ripping as it comes and goes.We get some brief vibes after 19 minutes,and the outburst of drumming 22 minutes in is fantastic! It's so powerful 25 minutes in.Violin arrives 28 minutes in to end the song.That was amazing! Like "Skin" had that electronic? sound for the first 5 minutes to create a rhythm to build around,"Frasco" opens with valiha for about 8 1/2 minutes to accomplish a rhythm as well.The valiha is an instrument that is shaped like a flute and is made of bamboo,it is plucked as it has strings.Eastern sounds and others come and go.I like the vibraphone on this track.The scorching guitar that arrives 4 1/2 minutes in comes and goes.When the valiha leaves it is replaced by the violin,vibraphone, and other sounds.Nice guitar/violin melody as percussion and bass help out.The song ends with lots of guitar feedback. I still like their first record the best,but would recommend any of their studio albums.This one requires more patience then the rest in my opinion,but the rewards are worth the effort.
