Japanese musician 99LETTERS crafts a singular sonic world on Kaibou Zukan, blending traditional Japanese instruments with electronic production under the concept of "gagaku techno." Released in 2022 on the Disciples label, the album takes the ancient sounds of instruments like the koto and mutates them into bold, unexpected forms — a fascinating collision of heritage and modern experimentation.
Across its ten tracks, Kaibou Zukan moves fluidly between intense, fractured electronic textures and quieter, more meditative moments, such as the sparse koto-driven "Koto Wo Narasu." It's an adventurous and deeply atmospheric listen that pushes the boundaries of electronic music while remaining rooted in Japanese musical tradition.
