Some words on this issue: SOMEI SATOH: “Hymn For The Sun” (ALM Records – AL-11) Awesome totally obscure and largely unknown minimalist tranced out and zoned in masterpiece that will make even La Monte Young, Charlemagne Palestine and Terry Riley blush with shame. This is without a doubt one of Somei Satoh’s masterpieces, a deep resonating work that sounds like a deep minimalist and heavily droned out resonating piano opus slowed down to expose the glory of the intoxicating swelling drone, grinding towards an internal path to manipulate your inner organs. Somei’s relentless piano tones and overtones bring a challenging reverberation to ones’ respiratory system, especially when increasing the volume the sonic wash will snap you out of a trance by beginning to experience the perpetual force of the mighty drone and its overtones. If you dig Taj Mahal Travelers, Kosugi exploits, Japanese avant-garde, electronic music and ethnic field recordings, then this one has written you all over it. Will get bigger in years to come…highest all time recommendation

New to the e-bay game but long experience in selling records so bid with confidence.

Excellent: record has hardly no visible defects and is preserved with care and attention, the condition most collectors take pride in to file away. Near Mint: a dash below mint, just perfect.
