kazuya nagaya: dream interpretation (the remixes)

Out in 2020 via SCI+TEC, Kazuya Nagaya's Dream Interpretation was an immersive masterclass in ritualistic simplicity. Floating in a cloud of billowing ambiance, it's nine tracks inviting the listener to traverse a broad spectrum of spirit. Now, almost exactly a year later, the Tokyo master returns, this time drafting in an impressive array of names to reinterpret the very same tracks. First up SCI+TEC head honcho Dubfire delivers a wonderfully atmospheric and glitchy rework of "Thanatos", before EVS (the designer and owner of LA jewelry brand Parts of Four), brings things down a level with a dark and hypnotic version of "Mother Wading In The River". Elsewhere German producer VRIL presents a distorted techno remix of "Heathen", the prolific Steve Rachmad puts his own unique spin on the same track, and Argentinian master Flug showcases his magic with two sublime offerings. Also features Cassegrain, Yotam Avni, Intercity Express, Markus Suckut, and Yagya. Marbled vinyl; gatefold sleeve.
