About

Susumu Yokota's vision of techno - house, lovingly collected in collaboration with Space Teddy and the Yokota family. The collectors version of 2 previously re-issued EPs on Transmigration. Now available as one double LP complete with Obi strip and insert. Presented with linear notes in English and Japanese with archival photos from Uwe Reineke and Mijk Van Dijk. All tracks have been remastered by Steffen Müller. 

""During a dinner in Tokyo," writes Van Dijk in the record's insert, "Yokota-san explained why he chose the project name "Ebi" (Japanese for "shrimp"). He understood the shrimp as the equivalent of House music: the tail is the bass drum, the tickling feet are the hi-hats, the tentacles are the claps and snare, and so on. Yokota-san's music was sometimes colourful and joyous and sometimes monochrome and introvert. Not many musicians are able to express so many emotions only through electronic sound. When he tragically deceased he left a huge gap—not only in the Japanese music scene—which may never be filled again". — (via Resident Advisor)
