Flow State - Rei Harakami
You’re on the free tier of Flow State. To get our weekly Tuesday podcast and access to our full archives (including daily Spotify playlist), become a subscriber: Good morning. It’s Friday so we’re listening to something more upbeat. Today we’re listening to Rei Harakami, a Japanese electronic music producer from Hiroshima. Thank you Chad for the recommendation. In the ‘90s, Harakami got involved in the burgeoning techno scene, picking up the Roland SC-88 Pro as his weapon of choice.¹ Like Aphex Twin, Harakami used the familiar sonic ingredients of dance music in idiosyncratic and non-obvious ways, creating outré and endearing music. We’re playing his first two albums, unrest from 1998 and opa*q from 1999. unrest - Rei Harakami (70m, no vocals) opa*q - Rei Harakami (60m, no vocals) Have a great weekend.
