Here's some press info from Dutch East..
You may recognize Riow Arai from the
Soup Disk compilation "Out Of Perspective".
So here's the details on his new album..
Pietro.
RIOW ARAI
Mind Edit
SOUP012CD
RIOW ARAI's CIRCUIT'72(silverstone03) was acclaimed worldwide. The art of
twisted drum'n'bass is still fresh, but he has gone the distance and
finally created a brand new world on his new album album MIND EDIT : it's
simple, fat, HI-FI<->LO-FI breakbeats. It's open to techno, drum'n'bass
and hip hop, but it does not belong to any established territories, rules
or concepts. Simple (in a sublime manner), yet vibrant with hi-tensioned
break-beats which you've never heard before.
RIOW ARAI has been invited to join NOBUKAZU TAKEMURA / CHILD'S VIEW remix
project, and TAKEMURA's label CHILDISC will release it in September.
RIOW ARAI's first vinyl product will also be available on soup-disk soon!!
"For most techno/breakbeats producers, the technology is just as a
substitute for writing a complicated composition, or a shelter from
exposing their artless. But for RIOW ARAI, it is a play ground for
releasing his spirit. RIOW ARAI has a talent to open a door to the
future music." - NOBUKAZU TAKEMURA/CHILD'S VIEW
