lawrence english in tokyo

without doubt, one of my favourite producers these days is lawrence english. for me, he really makes some of the most beautiful music currently about. if you haven't come across him before, i would strongly suggest you check the brilliant mnml ssgs mx43 english put together for us. for everyone in tokyo, the good news is that lawrence english is returning. this will be my first time seeing him live and i am very excited. the details of the gig are:

lawrence english (room40 / 12k, Australia), christopher willitis (ghostly / 12k / USA), minamo (12K, japan)
friday 19 november, 7:00pm for 7:30pm start
sonorium
you have to reserve in advance for this event, which you can do here.
there are only 80 places, so i suggest you register soon, if you want to come.
more info here (there is an osaka gig on the 20th)

i've seen willitis before, and he was good. i also saw minamo early in the year at a 12k showcase, and i was very impressed by them. a talented trio from japan. definitely worth checking. they have just released an album with lawrence english, 'a path less travelled', which i would strongly recommend. another high quality release from room40. and also track down lawrence english's contribution to the excellent series of 7 inches that touch has been releasing. it's a stunner.

hope to see some of you there on november 19th!
