Tokyo Bedroom Orchestra — Tsuioku / 追憶

Hiro Nakamura earns his living designing sound for games and animation; his credits include Steins;Gate Elite and the Laid-Back Camp series, work where every audio decision answers to someone else's picture. Tokyo Bedroom Orchestra is what happens when the same ear reports only to itself. Tsuioku, the word means a distant recollection, draws on the years Nakamura spent living on the Saitozaki peninsula in Fukuoka, sea on one side and mountains behind, and it was assembled the way he seems to do everything: field recordings from his immediate surroundings, mini synthesizers, effect pedals, and small hand-built contraptions whose whimsy you can occasionally hear. The twelve tracks are titled with single Japanese words, and they behave like hours of a day. "Shikijitsu" and "Minamo" open the record with guitar and strings in unusually clear focus; "Yoko" late in the sequence diffuses into a softer warmth. His label, KITCHEN. LABEL, has been curating this register of domestic quietude for years, haruka nakamura and ASPIDISTRAFLY among the housemates, and the fit is exact. The project built its international audience online, one tape-worn track at a time, which seems like the right speed for it. Mastered by Gen Tanabe; released last Friday on CD, cassette, and digital. 中村ヒロ的本職是遊戲和動畫的音效與配樂,《命運石之門 Elite》和《搖曳露營》系列都有他的名字。Tokyo Bedroom Orchestra 是他自己的企劃,這張《追憶》取材於他住在福岡 Saitozaki 半島的日子:海和山包圍的地方,錄音常常就地取材,再用 mini 合成器、效果器和手工小裝置慢慢養成曲子。十二首曲名全是日文單詞:式日、水面、夕餉、斜陽、月海、微睡,讀下來像一天的時刻表。開頭的〈式日〉〈水面〉由吉他和絃樂撐出清亮的輪廓,後段的〈陽光〉整個鬆開,光線變成漫射。KITCHEN. LABEL 出品,同門是 haruka nakamura 和 ASPIDISTRAFLY,這個新加坡廠牌對這類「貼著生活錄」的音樂一向有準頭。lo-fi 在這裡是方法:讓成品離創作那一刻近一點。
Dmytro Semykras — Rheinberger: Piano Works
- Released發行
- 2026-07-10(Presto Round-Up 7/10 頭條條目 + iTunes releaseDate 2026-07-10 雙源一致)
Josef Rheinberger is the only composer Liechtenstein has ever produced, and history has filed him almost entirely under organ music. What the filing system loses: a young man who paid his bills as a piano professor and rehearsal accompanist, and who wrote four piano sonatas that sit at the seam between Classical proportion and Romantic weather. The Ukrainian pianist Dmytro Semykras records the second, third, and fourth here, the last of them actually subtitled "Romantic," for Naxos's Romantic Piano series, which continues to do the unglamorous archival work of recording music everyone agreed to forget. Last Friday's Presto round-up led with Mahler and a Pulitzer opera; this was the entry at the bottom of the page, which is often where the interesting things are kept. Rheinberger 是列支敦士登史上唯一叫得出名字的作曲家,一八三九年生,今天幾乎只活在聖樂文獻裡。很少人記得他早年靠教鋼琴和做排練伴奏吃飯,寫過四首鋼琴奏鳴曲,落在古典與浪漫兩種傳統的接縫上。烏克蘭鋼琴家 Dmytro Semykras 這次錄了第二、三、四號,第四號副題就叫「浪漫」。Naxos 的 Romantic Piano 系列做的一直是這種事:把被史書一筆帶過的人翻出來,一張一張補錄。上週五 Presto 新片榜的頭條們都被我們報完了,這張排在尾部的反而最耐聽。
twisted teens — Florida Water Blues
- Released發行
- 2026-07-10(Bandcamp 頁 "released 10 July 2026" web_fetch 一手 + iTunes 2026-07-10 雙源一致)
Third album from the New Orleans duo of Caspian Hollywell and RJ Santos, and their second within a year, a work rate that tells you most of what you need to know about the finish on these thirteen tracks. The song titles map a specific American wetland: "Swamp," "Javelina," "Top Of The World Hwy No. 2." Pitchfork gave it a 78; this fall they open for the Breeders and for Kurt Vile & the Violators, which is roughly the correct pair of finishing schools for this kind of thing. 紐奧良二人組,Caspian Hollywell 和 RJ Santos,第三張全長,也是一年之內的第二張。這種產能已經把做音樂的方式交代清楚:不修,不磨,錄完就走。十三首曲名一路是美國南方的濕地地理——〈Swamp〉、〈Javelina〉(野豬)、〈Top Of The World Hwy No. 2〉。Pitchfork 給了七十八分,秋季巡演替 the Breeders 和 Kurt Vile & the Violators 開場。垃圾搖滾聽的就是這股不過腦子的勁,想太多就輸了。
Hurry — Zoned Out
- Released發行
- 2026-07-10(Bandcamp 頁 "releases 10 July 2026" web_fetch 一手 + Stereogum 報道一致)
The credit worth stopping for: Gerard Love, the departed third of Teenage Fanclub's songwriting triumvirate and the gentlest pen of the three, guesting on "Moving After You." He has surfaced rarely since leaving the band in 2018, and Matt Scottoline's jangle framework turns out to be a natural place for him to land. The record was engineered by Ian Farmer, of Modern Baseball and Slaughter Beach, Dog, at Philadelphia's Metal Shop, and nine of the ten songs are Scottoline's, the exception coming from James Hindle. The release strategy belongs to another decade, in a good way: a first vinyl run of one hundred copies, and no Spotify or Apple presence at release, so Bandcamp is the door. Power pop has always rewarded people willing to make a small effort. 費城人 Matt Scottoline 的 Hurry,這張最大的新聞在客串名單:Teenage Fanclub 前貝斯手 Gerard Love,二〇一八年離團之後很少露面,這次出現在〈Moving After You〉裡。TFC 三支筆裡他是最溫柔的那支,放進 Scottoline 的 jangle 框架剛剛好。錄音師是 Modern Baseball 和 Slaughter Beach, Dog 的 Ian Farmer。發行方式復古:首批黑膠只壓一百張,發行日想聽得先買,Apple 和 Spotify 都還沒有。等上架不如直接去 Bandcamp。
Nick Kivlen — Addicted to the Sunset
- Released發行
- 2026-07-07(Bandcamp 頁 "released 07 July 2026" web_fetch 一手 + iTunes 2026-07-07 雙源一致)
After a decade in Sunflower Bean and a tour behind Mortal Primetime, the band took a year off and Nick Kivlen went home, or rather to his Los Angeles living room, and recorded a solo debut on purpose without a label, which he has described as the more fun option. The production detail that explains the whole record: after sketching each song on acoustic guitar, the second element he recorded was a four-dollar shaker, and the arrangements hang on it the way a tent hangs on its pole. Around that armature: wah-wah guitar, sun-bleached harmonies, and a fixation on adolescent dreaming that the title announces up front. On the cover he stands before a desert horizon, hands half-transparent over his eyes. Sunflower Bean 的吉他手,樂隊巡演結束休整一年,他轉身就在洛杉磯的客廳裡錄了這張獨飛首作。自己寫自己錄自己製作,故意不簽廠牌,理由是這樣「比較好玩」。最能說明這張唱片氣質的是編排順序:木吉他打完框架,第二件錄的樂器是一顆四美元的沙鈴,全輯的節奏就掛在它上面。wah-wah 吉他、曬得褪色的和聲、加州公路旅行的殘影。封面上他站在沙漠地平線前,雙手半透明地遮著眼睛。到底是擋光還是不敢看,他自己也沒說死。
Hot Load — Realized
- Released發行
- 2026-07-03(Bandcamp 頁 "released 03 July 2026" web_fetch 一手)
Los Angeles five-piece, second album, and by their label's own admission the most metal-coded thing Drunken Sailor has ever put out. The Quietus locates singer Matt Trejo's register in the Jerry A school of Poison Idea hollering, a fair call, and the band's coordinates are otherwise easy to plot: Discharge's D-beat, Motörhead's throttle. "Petroleum Express" opens at collision speed, "Salvo" is the record's purest D-beat blast, and the title track closes with a run of fuzzed-out solos, a lap of honor after the demolition. They tour the UK in August. Eight tracks; no ballads were harmed, or attempted. 洛杉磯五人組的第二張。主唱 Matt Trejo 的藝名印不出來,Quietus 形容他的嗓子像「含著碎玻璃漱口」,師承 Poison Idea 的 Jerry A。坐標系不難畫:Discharge 的 D-beat、Motörhead 的油門、Poison Idea 的體重。廠牌 Drunken Sailor 自己都說,這是他們出過最金屬的東西。開場〈Petroleum Express〉直接撞牆,〈Salvo〉是全輯最兇的一段 D-beat,收尾的題名曲反而放起 fuzz solo,像燒完之後補一腳油門。八月他們去英國巡演。
Gnod R&D — Nobody Knows This Is Anywhere
- Released發行

Gnod turn twenty this year, and part of the celebration is this excavation: two tracks pulled from a mammoth two-day 2019 session, recorded straight to cassette at the time and given only minimal editing since. R&D is the experimental sideline of core members Paddy Shine and Chris Haslam. "CATHOLIC FM" and "SUNSET 102" come mastered by Miles Whittaker of Demdike Stare, with artwork by John Powell-Jones, on a vinyl run of 250 through Sacred Tapes, the label born, like Gnod's whole world, at Salford's Islington Mill. The liner notes end with the words SLT PHONE HOME. Salford 的 Gnod 今年二十歲,週年企劃之一是這捲出土物:二〇一九年兩天馬拉松即興的一部分,當場直錄卡帶,擱了好幾年才做最低限度的剪輯。R&D 是核心二人 Paddy Shine 和 Chris Haslam 的實驗支線,兩軌,〈CATHOLIC FM〉和〈SUNSET 102〉。母帶交給 Demdike Stare 的 Miles Whittaker,封面出自 John Powell-Jones,黑膠限量二百五十張。Sacred Tapes 和 Gnod 同樣發源於 Islington Mill,這次算是老廠房的線路重新接通。文案最後一行寫著:SLT PHONE HOME。

An Osaka trio with a domestic reputation for gymnastic technicality, math rock played at solving-for-x speed, returns after two years with a third album that swerves: the lead single "Toumei" moves like dance music, a new direction the Japanese music press has noted with some surprise, and the tracklist includes "miss-dystopia," their ending theme for the anime Farmagia. Whether a band this fast can be interesting slow is the question the album asks; I have not settled my answer yet, and suspect it will take a weekend. 大阪三人組,靠「超絕技巧」立身的技術流數學搖滾,彈得快、彈得密、彈得像在解題。睽違兩年的第三張全長卻拐了個彎:先行曲〈透明〉可以跳舞,Tower 的 Mikiki 專文直接點出「dance pop 新路線」。裡面還收了 TV 動畫《Farmagia》的片尾曲〈miss-dystopia〉。技術流樂隊的難關從來不是手速,是願不願意慢下來寫歌。這張是他們交出的答卷,好不好見仁見智,我聽了兩遍還沒下結論,週末再聽兩遍再說。
