Antwarps by aus

Antwarps is a gorgeous compilation album consists of early works by aus (Yasuhiko Fukuzono) from Tokyo. All the tracks in this album were selected from his groundbreaking debut album Kangaroo Note and the sublime follow-up album Crowding from U-COVER. These two albums were previously released as limited edition albums of which only 95 copies were produced for each of the albums. "Antwarps" is an elegant collection of fresh and melodic IDM, strong beat oriented Electronica and ambient works by aus who was only 21 years old by then. This album also includes exclusive bonus remixes by The Boats, Geskia and Jimmy Behan.

"This really is an absolutely beliting album and it's seen an awful lot of play round at my gaff. Deep, playful and beautiful electronica sounds with some wickedly put together beats. Mellow and chilled for the most part the melodies and chords are very striking and ease you along with style" - Smallfish

"the album has a solid rhythmic foundation built from a patchwork of electronic flutter and scrunch" - Cycric Defrost

"excellent actually" - Norman Records

"Antwarps works as a fine way to re-introduce Aus's older, limited material to the general public, as well as shed even more light on the brilliant Japanese electronic scene" - Silent Ballet
