I am soon to be TokyoJo no longer - I am leaving Japan and moving to London again.. This time rather than flying I am going to take the Trans Siberian Railway from Beijing through Mongolia and Siberia onto Moscow and St Petersburg.. Should take about a month. I am really excited about seein Gobi Desert, Great Wall of China, Lake Baikal etc etc.. Anyway, since I have to start packing up all my shit to send to London soon (including my music collection) I need to think about what music is going to accompany me on this epic journey from Eastern Asia to Northern Europe.. What music should I take with me.. My thoughts: SAW 1 and 2 Boc Some Eno Plenty of Dub Seefeel Susumu Yokota Flaming Lips Astrobotnia Mercury Rev Low The Orb... What else should I take? I always fuck this kind of thing up when I go on a trip - I get there and really regret whatever cds I brought with me - So I wannta get this one right. Any thoughts appreciated. Thx. |

Yep - can't get enough dub at the monent - just bought "PIck a Dub" by Keith Hudson and Scientist rids the world of the evil curse of the vampires yesterday.. blinding records both of them. What purer kind of music is there than dub - it has everything - wicked beats, mashed symbols, bass drums that sounds like daisy cutter bombs and bass lines so badd ass they should be illegal! Perfect.. |

maybe some Augustus Pablo. i've been listening to El Rockers recently. hmmm..... are you into vsnares? i like to listen to him at night - when its all dark. It can be great. Or the Braindance Coincidence. I like to ride trains with that. and i wouldn't be without björk (all 4-5 albums) but thats just me... thats a nice journey you're planning. I wish you all the best. |

Far East Monkey - Hisashiburi ne... atarashii avatar ga kakoii yo ne.. I am going to move to London for a few years - I have a lot of friends and family in London and I want to spend some more time with them - maybe I will come back to Japan in three of four years time - I love Japan and have so many good friends here, I am sure I will miss it when I go... In fact I am sure I will come back again to live sometime. And good suggestion about Mum - I think I will bring all their cds with me. FAM - did you see MUM play at Summer Sonic Festival in Chiba last summer? Sugokatta.. |

Blash - I guess you are planning to get a job teaching English, right? Or maybe you want to teach French or German (excuse my ignorance, not sure which you might speak if you come from Switzerland, probably both, right?). Anyway, there are plenly of jobs here teaching, some deals a lot better than others (so I hear, I am not a teacher). But costs are high here, you should bring a lot of money to live on while you are looking for a job... If you want more specific advice or any other questions, you can send me an email - post your adress here if you want to know more and I will mail you... |
