Citay — Little Kingdom [2007]

Recent psych masterpiece. If you play guitar (or have any interest whatsoever in guitar-driven rock music) then this IS for you. There are like 80 good riffs per side; I have this on CD, LP and on my fucking computer and I listen to it all the time. Their first release is good, but this is ... well, it just is. Complex layering, multiple delays, synths, 12-strings, and all of what Zeppelin would've been if they'd embraced their feminine side completely.

Genre: Contemporary psych
Label: Dead Oceans
Origin: San Fran, USA

Squarepusher — Music Is Rotted One Note [1998]

Uploading this for my friend Matt. Classic Rephlex release anyways, might as well be here since I get a huge throbbing in my loins for most of the shit that comes out on this label. Worth the download for "Circular Flexing" & some of the more free-form oriented tracks alone. Though, I kinda wish the guy would join a rock band because his chops are damn impressive.

Genre: Jazz / Electronica
Label: Rephlex
Origin: UK

UCHÜ — UCHU + Buddha [2006]

Here's the first two releases from UCHU. That is Kawabata and Hiroshi from Acid Mothers Temple with the addition of female vocals from Ayano. I picked this dreamy piece of work up at the AMT show. The liner notes proclaim "no synthesizer, no sampler, no programming, ...only Guitars!" and thats exactly what you get. Drone out bliss. There is some discrepancy here as the original recording I have of "Buddha" has different track titles as well as one track being completely absent. Though there is a hidden track on this compilation. Enjoy.

Genre: Psych/Drone
Label: Acid Mothers Temple [original releases] / na-mu [re release]
Country: Japan
Bitrate: ripped from CD @ 192k

What the guy has to say about humiliation & its juxtaposition with performance is brilliant. I also love the guitar tone here.
