I saw Japanese duo Menow described as slowcore acid folk. That description certainly piqued my interest, but i don't know if i really hear that in earnest. On new single "月の約束 (Tsukinoyakusoku)," i hear more of a Japanese pop meets lo-fi bedroom indie rock thing going on. Either way, it's fucking great. Listen to the track below and snag the new "白 ~haku ~ " 7" here from Galaxy Train.
Here's some oozing and mysterious music out of Japan's acid folk scene from Satomimagae. "Numa" floats and moves in slow motion, bits of acoustic guitar caressing electronic tones and soft, ghostly vocals. Check it out below and pre-order the upcoming "Hanazono" LP here via Guruguru Brain.
