Recently, a few tracks have been perfect to listen to walking around Tokyo, or for riding around the underground train network. The tracks that best fit Tokyo life for me, now, are Spying Glass by Massive Attack, Parks by Four Tet, She Moves She also by Four Tet, Journey by Gentle People remixed by Aphex Twin, My Angel Rocks back and Forth again by Four Tet, Untangle by Lusine and a few tracks by Boards of Canada also. I’m pretty sure Four Tet is a bit of a Japanophile judging by the influence present in his tracks. All of these are getting a lot of listens on my MP3 player right now.
