“...captures the sensation of returning to a formative landscape and discovering that its smallest details can still open up unexpected worlds.” - Chain DLK
It was with great sadness that we received the news of Paul Flack’s death last month.
His design, like all good art, was simultaneously personal and universal.
Please buy a ‘Hands On’ card in his memory: https://t.co/yaYRLw9HBj

Warp Records' @kellymoran on Susumu Yokota:
"This is music that feels as natural as watching the undulating waves of the ocean, or the slow gradual change of clouds shifting forms in the sky."

Tony Njoku on Susumu Yokota:
‘For me Susumu Yokota understood that electronic music could be a place of quiet, not spectacle. His work dissolved genre into atmosphere, memory, and tenderness, opening a space where sound could breathe and time could soften.'

George FitzGerald on Susumu Yokota:
I first came to Susumu Yokota's music through 'Grinning Cat'. As a teenager in the 2000s, it was a gateway into something completely different.

‘Phaser For The Ocean, Chorus For The Moon’ by Hatchback is a sprawling masterwork that encompasses ambient, new age and environmental music to wondrous effect.

Hannah Peel on Susumu Yokota
"His music is full of delicate aural visions - from the vibrant red leaves that adorn the autumnal trees in Japan to heavy rains on the mysterious Islands of Yakushima." - @Hanpeel
"I was initially hooked by the playful, off-grid Eno-esque compilation - 'Image 1983-1998'. It was a relief to find that Yokota is prolific in his output and rarely repeats himself. Curious, mercurial and always forward facing, each album feels like a skin shed." - Cate Le Bon

Hatchback in The Wire - Issue 508
“…the slow Cal sounds of Phaser For The Ocean, Chorus For The Moon’s four longform swathes register like a plush Western cousin of minimalist Japanese ambient” - @ Spenser Tomson, @thewiremagazine
