Heretic - ''Dedicated to the late Manuel Gottsching'' (Ashra), remix with 3D, 2023

I''ve created three remix tracks specifically for It''s Psychedelic! Baby Magazine. First, I will briefly explain why I made these three remix tracks for them. In August of this year, Cuneiform Records (U.S.) released all of my past works digitally. Related to that promotion, I was asked to be interviewed by It''s Psychedelic Baby! Magazine, and that was published. At that time, and since then, in all email conversations with Mr. Klemen Breznikar, he has always been courteous, so I had a very favorable impression of him. I''m very happy that I was able to release all of my works this year, but I''ve been concerned about the passing of two of my German musical friends last year (2022). One is Peter Frohmader, whose collaborative work was released at this time, and the other is Manuel Göttsching (Ashra). In particular, I have met Manuel-san privately in Tokyo every time since 2000, after he played live in Japan. Since this December 4th is the anniversary of his passing, I have always thought it would be great if I could publish my music in his memory somewhere. It''s Psychedelic Baby! Magazine agreed with my idea, and my contract partner, Cuneiform Records also gave me full agreement, so we decided to release these remix tracks for free. As for (3), which I will explain later, due to my relationship with Manuel up until now, MG.ART (especially Manuel''s wife) has made a special offer to release the remix and data for free only to me and It''s Psychedelic Baby! Magazine. So MG.ART gave us permission. Hiro Kawahara, 2023
