Originally released on Tokyo’s Plop Records (now known as Nature Bliss) in 2003,
Re.sort by Sora (Takeshi Kurosawa) is cherished by those who noticed it at the time.
In case you didn’t, here it is again in multiple formats courtesy of WRWTFWW.
The album’s a blissful bunch of warm, glitchy sample collages from jazz and bossa
nova, resulting in a summery leftfield ambiance.
Composed by Sora
Mastered by Taylor Deupree
Label logo by Shintaro Kago
Soothing cut-ups and analogue collages for dreamers in the summer breeze.
