Hiroshi Yoshimura’s Music For Nine Post Cards will soon be reissued launching a new label from Visible Cloaks’ Spencer Doran and Maxwell August Croy of Root Strata called Empire of Signs.
Widely regarded as one of the finest producers of Japanese ambient music, much of Yoshimura’s work has sold for sizeable figures on the resale market due to its rarity with the reissue of Music For Nine Post Cards offering the first chance to buy the record since 1982 when it was originally released by Japanese label Sound Process.
The record was Yoshimura’s first and launched a career that saw a number of further popular releases with another of those, Pier & Loft, soon also receiving its first vinyl release via Chee Shimizu’s 17853 Records.
The reissue will include original liner notes printed in both English and Japanese, as well as new notes from Yoko Yoshimura, and Doran and Croy. The record will be available from November 17 via Light In The Attic. You can pre-order it here. Hear three tracks from the record above.
