jammingdevice Light, delicate, ethereal and experimental, this Collection reached new heights in its willingness to showcase the outer fringes of melody while staying cohesive, clear, and accessible. ("0040" and "A Place" make for a gorgeous one-two punch opener.) Excellent stuff here. Erased Tapes continues to break the bounds of what I think it can contain, while compelling me to follow the journey. Thanks all. Favorite track: Kora Kora.

about

As the label’s tenth anniversary celebrations draw to a close, the latest Erased Tapes compilation, featuring new and unreleased music as well as a selection of its tenth year’s highlights, is now available.

Previously a Rough Trade exclusive as part of their label focus, Erased Tapes Collection IX features a previously unreleased song by Masayoshi Fujita titled ‘Cloud Of Light’, a Matmos edit of ‘Illogical Lullaby’ by fellow Japanese artist, vocal performer and the latest addition to the family, Hatis Noit, as well as ‘Unfolding’ off of Rival Consoles’ highly anticipated new album Persona.

Curated and sequenced by Erased Tapes founder Robert Raths, Erased Tapes Collection IX also contains tracks from label favourites including Nils Frahm, Ólafur Arnalds, Kiasmosand Ben Lukas Boysen, as well as Penguin Cafe Orchestra’s ‘Kora Kora’ taken from the re-issue of their final studio album Union Cafe.

The striking cover artwork shows an installation by South London artist Rob Lowe aka Supermundane, commissioned by Erased Tapes for the opening of the Sound Gallery and celebration of the label’s 10th anniversary. About the four metre high installation, Lowe says: “I wanted to make something that celebrated connectedness. A lot of my work is about interactions between lines and playing with expectations. The result is a piece made of ten elements that is greater than the sum of its parts.”

What better analogy to describe the spirit of Erased Tapes?
