Meitei Kwaidan cassette tape
This month Meitei ’s kwaidan was on sale at Boomkat in Manchester. Immediately after the sale, 50 cassette tapes were sold out in about an hour. I was deeply moved by the very crazy sales speed. I am glad that the people of the world are listening to Meitei’s track little by little. I really pour in my energy into this music, so here is a source of curiosity. If you do not know Kwaidan yet, please listen. It is a track that you can absolutely enjoy.
At the beginning of this year Meitei’s kwaidan was placed outside the music scene through HorrorJapan. There was energy that would broaden the possibilities of music. Because horror’s music track is rare, Meitei’s horror track is Japanese style. There is only Horror Japan that can introduce this!
And then Meitei was nominated for the month for best monthly ambient music at Bandcamp for two months.
For meitei who has nothing to do with biography yet this was a miracle. And they were pleasantly listening to the sound of Meitei.
Then I began to be offered a variety of music labels for offers on several releases.
And one of them was a label called Evening chants in Singapore. They are labels that release experimental, avant-garde yet unknown music. I was convinced that it was a very noble act. Besides, I was honored to be an artist that I can release for the first time on that label.
Immediately I signed a contract to reissue and release kwaidan as a cassette tape.
And in the fall of 2018 Kwaidan began physical release with a wonderful design. I really love this design layout by Evening chants designers.
Collaboration between Japanese ukiyoe style and Singapore design style. Finally Kwaidan began to be shared across the border.
And now Meitei’s 1st release is said to have succeeded. Kwaidan was more echoing than expected. The last one is now in White label records in Singapore. I am looking forward to getting this. Their style is not to transport this. That is, it can only be purchased locally. But I also want you to enjoy such a mood.
Meitei will run even big releases in 2019. But I will talk about that another day.
Please look forward to the activities of Meitei in the future.
