A l'effigie de l'artiste, ce t-shirt baptisé Motivation , sera vendu au Japon en l'honneur de la carrière de Towa Tei, qui a pour l'occasion choisit les motifs et couleurs de ce tees plutôt original qui imprimé et logo imposant.
How did Towa Tei have a new album and I'm just finding out? For those of you saying "Who?" Towa debuted as a member of "Deee-Lite" from U.S. label Electra in 1990 ("Groove Is In The Heart," anyone?), and solo debuted with the album "Future Listening" in 1994. Fast-forward twelve years later to SUNNY, Towa's 6th album! And hear me when I say it does not disappoint. As a music producer, he has been involved in producing music for other artists, TV commercials and movie soundtracks, and also branding collaborated products [...]
¿Existe la fórmula de la perfección? No lo sé, pero ésta está cerca de serlo: 1 Mente maestra de música electronica + 4 años de proceso evolutivo + Ryuichi Sakamoto + Massive Attack + Apparat + Towa Tei + Robert Owens / 9 tracks = PLUS Un álbum con las colaboraciones más impresionantes que he visto en los últimos años y no es sólo por la elegancia de Sakamoto o la melodia en la voz de Robert Owens sino por la [...]

NF Rating: (Well despite all that....at least I got it!)Upon the release of his sixth album, I wanted to do whatever it takes to get a copy of Towa's new effort being that I'm a huge fan of his and counting him as one of my many influences that makes up my unique musical DNA, but it was fraught with some damning obstacles in order to obtain a copy through legal means.As you know I'm a huge
テイ・トウワ. In case you hadn't guessed, the above is indeed the name Towa Tei in Japanese. God, I'd love to go to that country - and not the sanitised, orientalist Japan of 'Lost in Translation' but the real thing. Anyway, Towa Tei is a DJ who is rather the phenomenon in his native country but not quite so famous outside its borders. He's been around for longer than my lifespan which should give you an idea of how much of a genius he [...]
One of my favorite arrangements of all time. MP3: Stretch Building Bamboo by Towa Tei
Join me at the 3:30 mark. You'll find me there hitting repeat. Towa Tei is beyond ace - he's a full house of high rollers all on his very own. The original version of Mind Wall was a masterpiece in of itself, yet Towa tweaks it to a place beyond levels. [...]
Hall and Oates. The gayest duo ever to not be gay. I was going to post this review/tribute under the category "guilty pleasure," and yet . . . I don't feel guilty. The Bird and The Bee are releasing an entire album of covers, and it's all over the internets (actually, they did this on purpose -very cool marketing strategy). The actual record comes out March 23 (order here ). How is it? It's a lot of fun, but I'm not sure it can live beyond the novelty. It makes me want to hear the originals. [...]
Towa Tei - Taste Of You feat. Taprikk Sweezee (Fakesch Remix) - From the excellent Exchange remix collection from Michael Fakesch, of Funkstorung fame. Towa Tei is probably most famous for being part of Deee-Lite, but there's much more to this international DJ who has worked with some of the greats in hip hop to experimental music. This track is what I imagine what Prince would sound if he embraced electronics more. Yeasayer - Ambling Alp - Another Brooklyn band, and quite similar to Animal [...]
The Japanese music industry is the second largest in the world, behind the United States Konichiwa! With their love for all things colourful and kooky, it's no surprise that the Japanese are passionate about their pop. The J-Pop genre (ジェイポップ) refers to homegrown musical talent and was coined to distinguish Japanese music from international (it includes pop, rock and r&b). And how does J-Pop sound and look? We've picked a few interesting examples, but this is really just the tip of the iceberg - last year WAPS was [...]

While we here at Cream Team headquarters are positive that nothing this summer will match the epic-ness that will be our 1st Anniversary party , we cannot sit idle while a true pop icon announces a rare jaunt over to our side of the pond. There are precious few contemporary performers who can keep our interest for more than an album or two, let alone cultivate a remarkable body of work (pun intended) while unabashedly putting her mark on almost every major pop-music trend of the last decade and beyond. Some may call [...]
[IMG:Tajima Kazunali©]By Conan the DestroyhhherTranslation TXT by Aisha Takashima (hug inc.)Towa Tei is a producer who is bound by no limits or defined by any genre. In fact you try put him in a category and you'll find that it's impossible when he crosses from one genre to another. His tenure in Deee-lite as a producer/DJ was a stepping stone in the right direction and made us aware about his
So far, lots of synthy, electro-pop for Snoopy in '09!

By Conan the DestroyhhherKylie Minogue ought to be a proud Australian for leading a successful career in pop music which spans over 21 years, many hit singles, chart topping hits and adding yet another Australian that has managed to breakthrough into the American market.Sure she had her fair share of up and downs with her bouts of breast cancer (I believe its currently in remission) and her off
