Yes i have had this one since last week and have been
enjoying it quite a bit. Here is the info on it:
. Marumari: Ballad of the Round Ball cd/lp (Carpark 02)
- Tracks: circles, five14b, saturday, six4a, 4eleven, eight7,
seeya, ten7x-a, first one, and boss.
The sound of Ballad of a Round Ball, as well as all
of Marumari's music, is a nice melodic dubby analog
Mouse on Mars meets Isan type sound combining
quirky playful structures with simple yet elegant
melodies. My only complaint about Ballad of a
Round Ball is that it's only 40 minutes long and
since the whole cd flows so nicely, it seems it's
over all too quickly.
Ballad of the Round Ball is the second Marumari cd i
have. The first is called Story of the Heavens on the
Cunsanto label. Marumari also has tracks on several
comps including Lucky Kitchen's Blip, Bleep
(Soundtracks to Imaginary Videogames), Mad Monkey's
Enter the Monkey, the new Kid606 & Friends remix
comp, and the recent Mindfield/Faqt Ricci's Pieces
tribute release. As you may have guessed by now, I've
been quite happy with everything I've heard from
Marumari so far.
Supposedly there will be a new Marumari album
in early 2000 on Carpark called "In the Year 3000,
Marumari Arrived..." so we have even more to look
fwd to.
Two Marumari websites to check out are listed below.
The first is the official website with some entertaining
shockwave/fash features. The second is good for some
Marumari mp3s:

the website for the UK label it was on - Cunsanto:
