Ryukyu Underground, RHKirk remixes

• April 14th, 2005

Today I was browsing through some design portfolio sites, Sanderson Bob (ex tDR* Art Director) to be specific, and a recent piece he did, the Richard H. Kirk (ex Cabaret Voltaire) remixes for Ryukyu Undergound CD design caught my eye. Turns out that Ryukyu Underground are big file sharing pro-ponents! So I posted the RHKirk remix links here… Thanks guys!

Asian melodies and sounds combine with cutting-edge beats and production. Shamisen echoes over subsonic bass - Okinawan singers blend with ambient sounds and cut-up break beats.
This is the sound of contemporary Okinawa.
This blending of an ancient eastern culture and a modern westernized world.
This is Ryukyu Underground.
