Random gift for @089 of Mandy (and bonus Grim)! Don't worry about repaying me. I just love giving gifts.

3/3: Last, but not least… Originally released in 2012, this reissue of Jun Konagaya’s seminal solo CD, “Organ” is available as a limited edition 12-inch by itself, or in an expanded edition with a 40-minute cassette of previously unreleased pieces from 1988 to 1990. This album marked a departure from earlier collaborative endeavors and abrasive style as #Grim and #WhiteHospital. What you get instead is like super melancholic #Enka organ playing. https://urashima.bandcamp.com/album/organ
#Upcoming #Urashima 2/3: Next is a reissue of a 7-inch by #Grim (aka Jun Konagaya), a one-man project transcending conventional boundaries of industrial music, power electronics, and noise. “Amaterasu” showcases his mastery of manipulating unconventional sounds to create an engrossing experience. Housed in a wooden box and comes with a bonus 7-inch, “Tsukuyomi”. https://urashima.bandcamp.com/album/amaterasu-tsukuyomi
Late night work? Time for some preacher intonations and radio noise laid over mournful Canadian music. This is an amazing album, just incredibly grim.
