Mimic CD Works – Enban
Yasuo Sugibayashi, who has led the band “Kujira” since the early 1980s, played electronic music before forming Kujira. Around 1980, he released two singles and one album, but the albums were completely anonymous, with no artist name written anywhere on the cover, and the solid electronic sounds that could not be related to the rich world of songs that would later become Kujira, were only known to a small number of people as mysterious independent records. Perhaps because the electronic sounds were connected to the later world of electronica and acoustic music, some of the next generation of musicians in those fields whispered about his existence, and this time all of his works have been compiled into one CD. Mastering was done by Taku Unami, and his mysterious activities at that time are revealed in an interview with himself, liberating the unknown early ’80s electro music! After all, he only performed live once at that time! That one performance was the opening act for JUKE led by Shinro Ohtake, which shows his isolation from the scene and his solitary nature.
