Trying to find more stuff like Zefs Chasing Cara, standards, LITE, Totorro, Tom’s Story, Syncatto, Gabba. (Maybe invalids would count, too, at least the instrumental version ;). Covet is an obvious. What else? Thanks!
@Mbourgon I have a big long playlist of Japanese math rock here https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2DrClhXuAWATkiFd50YUdi?si=rF88nvI7TO-KWw6C4j6Zvw, quite a few of them will fit your description (off the top of my head, JYOCHO, Paranoid Void, Uchu Conbini, but there’s loads more in there). Outside Japan, some bands you may like are DJ Perro (Mexico), Elephant Gym (Taiwan), CHON, Floral (USA). I could go on… 😂
Thanks, I’ll give this a listen! Paranoid Void I’ve not heard of, same with DJ Perro, so I’m stoked!
And please feel free to go on! More more more! I love the Floral, love some of the Elephant Gym, CHON inexplicably isn’t my thing but I’ll give them another listen, il have to go listen to the JYOCHO again, and just got an Uchu Conbini album last week.
More riffy than specifically tappy, but get on Alpha Male Tea Party. Physics House Band are a wonderful mix of math and jazz. Cleft were amazing and the dear departed Dan Wild-Beesley is genuinely missed.
Man if I could get more music like totorros home alone I could die happy
