Foodman Moriyama LP Vinyl

Moriyama is the first release on Palto Flats by Nagoya-based experimental producer Foodman (Takahide Higuchi). A 5 track 12" focused on deep, tactile rhythmic and offbeat tracks, Moriyama tilts on some of the producer's most dance-friendly work. "Mizuboro," (meaning water bath) elicits the feeling of soaking in a tub of warm bassy synth pads, metronomic patterns of woodwinds and skittering percussion suitable for latenight winds. Elsewhere, on "Soudesu," Foodman experiments with traditional instrumentation & vocal forms to create a special post-ambient/dance hybrid of familiar sounds reconfigured. Named after the district he lives in, Moriyama represents some of Foodman's most direct, accessible work - a full helping. Foodman is the most internationally renowned artist coming out of the Japanese Footwork/experimental scene, and has recently transitioned into more abstract, ambient compositions.
