How was 2019 for you?
Atsushi Izumi: I spent my time staying healthy, while raising my son and focusing on music production. I’ve released vinyl EPs on The Collection Artaud and Thrènes Records. It took quite a while to release, but in the end all went well. I would like to thank everyone involved. Live bookings in Europe have been canceled, but I hope to be back in 2020.
Highlights?
One highlight was playing live sets at KGR’N in Tokyo. I recommend this place, as the location has a really great sound. I was happy to hear that Samuel Kerridge spun my tracks on his NTS radio show and on Boiler Room.
Lowlights?
Tax increase.
Song of the year?
You Hung – The Truth Was Different (Downwards)
What’s your New Year’s resolution?
The release of a new EP.
