chOOn!! began life as a notoriously wild radio show invested in niche musical subcultures. Now a newly formed reissue label, chOOn!! champions obscure and forgotten sounds with a string of top quality vinyl reissues.

This mix is deeply influenced by Japanese currents – our next set of reissues will focus heavily on a circle of Tokyo musicians and artists working at the vanguard of contemporary practice during the turn of the 1980s.

From within you will find a collection of sprawling subterranean sounds. Hypnotically lush aquatic minimalism – sub-tropical ambient waters – Okinawan proto-electro – lightly percussive Caribbean environments – floating pentatonic synth and steel pan melodies joining in the tides and sounds of many oceanic creatures.
