Album Facts
Yasuaki Shimizu - Kakashi Vinyl LP
1982 Tokyo: saxophone, marimba and dub, still ahead of everything.
- The 1982 Japanese underground landmark, first released outside Japan by Palto Flats
- Saxophone, marimba and dub electronics from the leader of the band Mariah
- Includes a printed insert with in depth liner notes
Yasuaki Shimizu cut Kakashi at Nippon Columbia in Tokyo in 1982, alongside his work leading the band Mariah, and it has been quietly influential ever since. Saxophone lines float over marimba, dub space and electronics, somewhere between fourth world ambient, jazz and pop that refuses to settle. "Umi No Ue Kara" runs more than eight minutes and never feels long. Palto Flats brought it out of Japan for the first time, licensed and remastered, with an insert of in depth liner notes. This is the 2026 repress of that edition.
