Japanese import. 'Musik' is a compilation of demo tapes by thirteen artists that were sent to Vanity from all over Japan. A monumental album introducing early Japanese experimental DIY music that emerged from the advent of affordable synthesizers and multi-track recorders in the mid-1980s, stimulating the underground music scene of the era. With the exception of Anode/Cathode (who released music on Daigoretsu and Pinakotheka), Tokyo, led by Munehiro Narita (High Rise), Plazama Music (predecessor of B.C. Lemons), Arbeit (a group by designer Achim Duchow who created the front cover artwork for Rock Magazine), Kiiro Radical and Invivo who separately released cassettes on Vanity, and Yuzuru Agi's solo alias New York (that featured his field recordings from a visit in New York), all other artists are anonymous, and their information is shrouded in mystery. Riddled with tape hiss noise and exceedingly low-fi sound quality. Originally released in 1981 as a double LP box set through Vanity. This is the first time it is reissued. All tracks included in this 2CD box set were digitally mastered from the original master tapes. Comes with Japanese liner notes. Limited to 400 copies. TRACKS: 01. Pessimeist - Sattyuzai 02.
