About this product
On 2001's the Sleepy Strange, Athens, Georgia's Japancakes pioneered the concept of ambient country music. John Neff's pedal steel playing was the instrumental album's strongest 'voice' - an elastic, hypnotic drone rooted in an Americana-styled dreamscape, gently pulling the listener into the band's watercolor imagery. The group's approach remains suitably restrained for Belmondo - after all, it's part of Darla's Bliss-Out ambient series - but they've shifted focus away from the pedal steel. It's still a significant part of the band's sound, but it doesn't carry the record, and it's often so heavily drenched in effects that you'll barely recognize it; even at it's most obvious (during 'Always Stuck with Leaving' and 'Duluth 75'), it sounds woozier than usual. 2002. Album Tracks 1. And Begin 2. Handguns and Firearms 3. Theme for a Film 4. Always Stuck with Leaving 5. Duluth 7.5 6. Another

2016 album from Athens, GA all-stars Japancakes now with Carrie Clough (Bart Davenport, Call & Response) on vocals. The thing about Japancakes is that each album feels cohesive with keeping the importance of song order to create an overall feel. This , while a new direction for the band, continues in that tradition. A change of scenery, having half the band in LA, proved very useful for a fresh adventure for the band. New sights and sounds heavily influenced the making of this album. The addition of Carrie accomplished many goals for an album Japancakes has talked about for years. Carrie’s distinct vocals, imagery and lyrics provided an atmosphere that seem to fit the music perfectly. Her voice, along with the more electronic sound of the band, worked well to capture thoughts of life and travel through other dimensions. The album has a strange familiarity but feels like floating through space. Album Tracks 1. We're in the City 2. Spies 3. Sleeper 4. Time Travel 5. Destination Mining 6. Lost Voyage 7. Second Sun 8. 5th Dimension 9. Android 10. We're Awake and Floating 11. Night Chorus 12. The Return
