Omodaka, the chiptune-meets-minyō solo project of Sōichi Terada, has just released a new EP of 4 songs! Included is title track "Dodarebachi" which was first released as part of the "Tenkai" Buddha machine, a project from Japan featuring songs by various artists and that sold out almost instantly. This EP follows the album "Gujoh Bushi" (2019).
In December, Omodaka did an online live show in a fantastic virtual set. The show titled "Synthetic Nature Live" can still be viewed on YouTube.
In other recent news, a track first released under the Sumo Jungle monicker in 1996 has been featured on vinyl EP compilation "Junglish Massive 2" out this month on Hong Kong label Klasse Wrecks. The vinyl can still be found at Juno (UK), Vinyl Underground (UK) and some others. It's also available digitally on the label's Bandcamp.
