Seitō: In the Beginning, Woman Was the Sun

by Various Artists

supported by

IWanttoFall Amazing compilation of Japanese All Female Artists, electronic, experimental and psychedelic tunes to really get a picture of whats happening in contemporary music over Japan, Blood Moon by Fuji Yuki immediately captured me and felt enveloped into the whole album. Favorite track: Blood Moon.

Lars Gotrich An adsorbing compilation of women currently active in the Japanese experimental and electronic scenes. I keep returning to the spaceship dub of Kiki Hitomi, but it's impossible to pick just one highlight — there's enlightening array of textures to discover. Favorite track: Gain And Lose.

Clíona Ní Laoi Absolutely stunning release! Favorite track: Gain And Lose.

marolszz It's amazing - dark and moody! I really like the whole album and can't choose my favourite track.

Faisal Jewell Dewbow is the most Amazing song in the Compilation. I really love the song because it is a fusion of Japanese Shamisen and Electronic Beats. Favorite track: Dewbow.

about

Seitō {青鞜} gathers Japanese female artists from various electronic and experimental music fields. Like the « Tokyo Flashback » series issued by P.S.F. in the early 1990s, this collection recorded between 2017 and 2019 exposes the richness of the contemporary Japanese underground music scene. The title refers to a cult feminist magazine printed in Japan in the 1910s. All tracks issued for the first time.
