NARIYAMA AYAGU by OKINAWA DELAYS FEAT SATOKO ISHIMINE

"Nariyama Ayagu" is a spacey, sunrise-friendly combination of tumbling piano lines, reverb-heavy Fender Rhodes chords, plucked acoustic guitar lines and starry electronics. While the instrumental Dub is impressive, it naturally lacks the remix's star attraction - a sublime, head-in-the-clouds vocal from veteran Japanese pop singer Satoko Ishimine. Over on the flip, you'll find a brilliant, jazz-funk influenced cover of Kimiko Kasai's popular 1977 Japanese disco cut "Vibration". It, too, is rather special.
