I came across Kan Sano’s album Fantastic Farewell in 2011 and have been a fan of his ever since. I was so enthused by his music that I actually sent him an email to tell him so (my level of enthusiasm was matched in his...

Future Classic: Melodiesinfonie “Wohlklänge EP”

We get so many “beat tapes” or instrumental records that it’s been hard to keep track, and frankly it’s pretty rare that a new player jumps out at you. But these last few weeks / months we’ve been ...
