Recorded in London, Vienna and Tokyo, the 8 songs and 1 instrumental on Manafon bring together "the world’s leading improvisors, and innovators, artists who explore free improvisation, space-specific performance and live electronics" including Evan Parker, Keith Rowe, Christian Fennesz, Sachiko M, Otomo Yoshihide, John Tilbury and members of Polwechsel.

This is the first time on 180gram vinyl for this 2LP set.

Blemish was David Sylvian’s first solo album to be released on his own Samadhisound label following his departure from Virgin Records in 2003. This is the first official release on 180gram vinyl. Working primarily as a solo artist, Sylvian created an impromptu suite of songs for guitar, electronics and voice. The compositions were crafted from improvisational sessions by Sylvian and the acclaimed free-jazz guitarist, Derek Bailey on 3 tracks.

JAPAN'S TIN DRUM (33 1/3 PAPERBACK (2023) BY AGATA PYZIK


book

A book I want to read... Pity it's not out til next year but you can pre-order. Tin Drum seeks to provide an outsider look at one of the most mysterious post-punk albums, the 1981 Orientalist and escapist manifesto by the English synth-pop/new wave English band Japan. As an act of cultural appropriation and a meditation on the perils of Western civilisation, seeking solace in a virtual trip to the 'Orient of the self' and Maoist ideology, Tin Drum invites external analysis to be culturally appropriated itself.

Agata Pyzik tells how the fruitful encounter between the neurotic Western youngsters and dream of the radically other East produced one of the most dissonant and compelling records of the era, too strange to be appreciated at the time, a big hit at the time but too peculiar to be fully understood. Why, at the break of the 1980s and the final decade of the cold war, do these pale aesthetes dream of Mao's China? At once incredibly English and exotic, futurist and backward-looking, Japan and Tin Drum were a unique exercise in Rimbaudian 'becoming somebody else', fascinated in Chinese communism, anticipating the surge of the interest in Chinese Tiger just as it was shaking off Mao's legacy to become a modern, capitalist economy. Yet the yearning to become 'different' expressed in it, both in terms of class and nationality, makes the album's claim unexpectedly universal.

JAPAN - QUIET LIFE VINYL REISSUES (2021)


vinyl

Sublime and wonderfully packaged 2021 release. The record is now the subject of a major new reissue featuring a brand new Abbey Road half-speed remaster of the original album, alt mixes, b-sides, singles, rarities and live material - including the sought after 'lost' Live at Budokan show from March 1980 previously only available as the 4 track EP Live in Japan.

amazon.co.uk (direct link)

2021 Reissue Available: amazon.co.uk (direct link)

vinyl

That Japan's breakthrough record Quiet Life was released in both 1979 and 1980 is uniquely fitting for a band who were about to step out of the glam rock, post-punk shadows of the late '70s and deliver an as yet genre-less record that would come to define the '80s. Quiet Life was the third, final and most successful release on the Hansa Records label. A forerunner for the alternative/new wave sound of the new decade, the album would become one of the great classic British albums.

David Sylvian
Re-releases

Just look at the new artwork for these re-releases! Beautiful beyond words - they add a whole new dimension to the release. Brilliant Trees, for instance, without the yellow border works much better as the colour somehow takes away from the power of the image. Alchemy has always been a favourite of mine as it really foretold the direction Sylvian would go without the constraints of pop stardom shackling him - this is as far away to the catchy riffs of the New Romantics as you can go in the mid 1980s. The original release was enhanced by Amanda Faulkner's depiction of South American Shamanism but this new imagery works - Sylvian at peace in a far away land. Gone to Earth - well that's a complete reinvention! I quite like the original artwork but this takes it off in another direction - literally with the car and all that. It works but I can't really say why. Secrets - well what I can see from the front cover is the blackened background of the name and title. And Rain Tree Crow - well you just couldn't get better than the original cover - period. Looks good to see it again with the new, heavy vinyl. Looking at each of these, far, far bigger and therefore more pleasing than the pathetically small CD versions, feeling the vinyl - it shows you just why it's been revived - it's like seeing works of art in a museum.

David Sylvian :: CD :: Vinyl :: Memorabilia :: Price Guide

Nov 2016: just started the Price Guide. See how I'm doing. More details here.


Japan Very Best & David Sylvian Brilliant Trees CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered (2006) + Exclusive Set of Sylvian Postcards

March 2017: just got in some of these remastered and reissued CDs from 2006. All are sealed, come with an exclusive set of Sylvian postcards, and are priced at just £6.99 including UK delivery. More details here. Ditto The Very Best of Japan CD here. Now with the cards The Very Best makes a great collector's item!


Sylvian/Sakamoto - Forbidden Colours


Sylvian/Sakamoto - Forbidden Colurs Japanese 7 inch record


June 2016: as per the back cover of the 1983 Japanese 7" release of Forbidden Colours, Sylvian wrote the lyrics to the song on 16, February 1983. On that day (a Wednesday) Ronald Reagan was US President and Andropov leader of the Soviet Union (remember the time after Brezhnev had finally shuffled off this mortal coil when the Russian leaders seemed to come and go at a drop of a hat until Gorbachev was the last man standing, it seemed?)...more.

Japan Gentlemen Take Polaroids UK Promo Poster


Feb. 2016: Have five of these posters in @ just £8.99 including postage if delivered to a UK address. Plus will send a set of Sylvian postcards. More details and more scans of the poster added here.


David Bowie (1947 - 2016)

18th Jan. 2016: Well a week has passed since the death was announced on this musical genius and so much has been written and televised that little old me can add little, if anything. So I thought I would mention it in relation to Sylvian and Japan...more.


SamadhiSound Back Catalogue

June 2016: With Hypergraphia being the label's final release, it's means that unless another record company takes the back catalogue on then at some point the releases will dry up as they're no longer made. Statin' the bledin' obvious ... whatever, but the outcome will be that the prices for titles that do appear on secondary markets will go up and up. This is already true with Uncommon Deities where prices are all over the place...more.


1988 Official Sylvian Postcards

June 2016: just found a few sets of 4 of these cards in my stockroom. More details now added here. They're absolutely beautiful...




Japan - Assemblage Cassette Misprint

Here's a weird one. The Assemblage (Special Edition - Double Play, ZCHAN 1) UK cassette release from the 1980s. Yes it's 'special' but not in the way Hansa would like. The reverse of the pic slv. has details of a Bee Gees release! June 2016: 1 in stock. More details and photos here.


The Joke

Being a Sylvian fan (or a fan of anything as opposed to a slightly enthusiastic follower of something) reminds me of that famous Tony Hancock line in The Rebel...more


Russell Mills Sale - April 2016:

Lowered the prices on many Russell Mills items. Many have sold but there are some wonderful items left including a few of the Ember Glance drawings (these have all sold as of Sept. 2016), the paintings used for the covers of the Samuel Beckett books, the painting used for the Light Years book published by Faber & Faber, and the Third Uncle Mixed Media Painting used for the book with Brian Eno (and obviously they are all a one off and can never be replaced). They make a unique and wonderful gift for any Sylvian/Mills/Eno collector.

Details here.

Obviously, the one off items can never be replaced but I won't be replacing the other Russell Mills items in multiples like posters once they sell out so catch them while I still have them. And nothing is in great quantities to start with.


Hypergraphia - Books You Must Read Before You Die

26th December 2015
It's deserves a full review and it is here. This will be sent out with an exclusive set of Sylvian postcards.

November 2015:
Hypergraphia: The Writings of David Sylvian 1980-2014 now reviewed here. With design by Chris Bigg it promises to be the release of the year.

We have alot more Sylvian/Japan stuff not even listed so if there is a specific item you are after e-mail us and if we haven't got it we'll look out for it and you'll be the first person to know when it comes in.
