End of March will see the release of a 12inch featuring one original Red Stars Over Tokyo track and a remix by the acclaimed Magazine collective from Cologne. End of April, a second 12inch will follow featuring remixes only, done by Machinefabriek and Vindicatrix. Later this year we will also release a Red Stars Over Tokyo full album. Since 2008, Red Stars Over Tokyo has been releasing records on his own Hot Hair imprint. With a past playing in Punk bands, his sound nowadays has a deliberate lo-fi approach. His tracks have a free-flowing feel, sounding improvised without shunning precision and emotional poise. 'Building Houses', the original will feature on the 'Melody Attack' album to be released later this year, has been re-imagined by Machinefabriek as a heavily sound-based piece that escapes easy definition. The remix has an improvised flow and thus a very natural feel to it. The track sets its own limits but crosses them time and again. A languid melody line on top gives a sense of emotional direction, but its rhythmic energy hints at the track being stuck in an echo chamber, whilst bouncing off the walls and off itself. Vindicatrix delivers two remixes of 'Building Houses'. His informed idiosyncrasy dwells through these two tracks, linking them to the darker side of Techno, UK Bass and post- rave culture. Both tracks have a broken feel to them, delivering their message in jolts and bouts, whilst ending things up with a strong sense of ecstatic relief.
