[ESP107] GROUND - Yaoyorozoo - 2xVinyl/Digital LP — Release May 16th — When Daichi Furukawa showed up on our radar in 2018, it was at a time when the ESP Institute was loosely focusing on (our obtuse version of) club-friendly releases, but upon our first listen to his Ground demos that would become his debut 2xLP ‘Sunizm’, we immediately threw accessibility out the window again. Ground is technically from Osaka, but we believe he’s actually from another planet, merely passing through, collecting data from all aspects of Earth—be it organic, animal, chemical, or human-made fodder. Perhaps his clan found the “Golden Record” on our space junk Voyager 1 and considered our attempt at self-representation oblivious, mediocre, laughable, and decided to come show us how it could be done properly. After the inimitable ‘Sunizm’, a slew of singles and remixes, and follow-up EP entitled ‘Wakusei’, we’re proud to finally present the long-awaited 2xLP, ‘Yaoyorozoo’. Once again, Daichi steps into some hybrid-of-hybrids territory—a truly mutant fusion of culture and sonics that should make no sense at all, but his confidence (and disregard for public comprehension) shows no mercy in thrusting his vision upon us. ‘Yaoyorozoo’ is both ancient and future, primitive and advanced, tribal and lone wolf—a mélange of human success and failure, a cerebral scraping of consciousness, a granular paste of Earthly artefacts smeared across 73 minutes. Moments of undeniable beauty devolve into heavy and uncomfortable hallucinations, voices speak to us from hidden spaces in the soundstage… or do they? Scenes are set just long enough for the listener to accept one reality, only to be abruptly disoriented by jarring elements that pull our subconscious center-stage and question our sense of perception. What the fuck is actually happening here? Everything evolves tangentially, much like dream abstractions—or this press release itself—testing the limits of audience patience and laughing at any semblance of what’s acceptable, functional, or conventional. — Artwork by Daichi Furukawa — #ESP #ESPInstitute #Ground #Osaka #ChillMointain

This was my third pilgrimage to Mount Omine. The day before, Nara Yoshino were hit by a magnitude 5.3 earthquake, but everyone at Omine-dera Temple on the summit was fine, and I was able to pay my respects to Ozunu san and Zao san and complete my pilgrimage safely. I am grateful to those who have protected this beautiful culture and place for 1300 years. Many thanks also to my high school friend @yuuki.matsuba , who climbed with me. The sounds of birds and the conch shells blown by the mountain ascetics filled the air. I hope to be able to return to this place safely again next year. よおおまいり photo by @yuuki.matsuba 🙏
