Review: Izabel Caligiore's wonderful Lullabies For Insomniacs show on Red Light Radio expands its remit with the launch of an eponymous label and the debut release showcases the distinct talents of Sugai Ken. According to Caligiore, Ken made contact with her after hearing the legendary Chee Shimizu mix on LFI, sending over some CDs of his music and she was blown away by the Tokyo artist's unique sonic vision. The end result is On The Quakefish, a delightfully odd adventure through Ken's immersive world where Gigi Masin-style new age bliss outs intermingle with strange vocal chant tracks and other quirky compositions. Nature and water specifically seems to be a central theme for this most intriguing album which sounds like it has been recorded from another dimension. A fine debut from Lullabies For Insomniacs, we are totally behind this one!
