Music | Light In The Attic Records

Hiroshi Yoshimura

Despite his status as a key figure in the history of Japanese ambient music, Hiroshi Yoshimura remains tragically under-known outside of his home country. Empire of Signs – a new imprint co-helmed by Maxwell August Croy, Spencer Doran and distributed by Light In The Attic – is proud to reissue Yoshimura’s debut Music for Nine Post Cards for the first time outside Japan in collaboration with Hiroshi’s widow Yoko Yoshimura, with more reissues of Hiroshi’s works to follow in the future.

Acetone |1992-2001

About nine years ago our friend Sam Sweet started writing a book about the band Acetone and their relationship to the city of Los Angeles. After Sam brought the band to our attention, we fell in love with their music and story. We're so happy to share the news of both Sam's book, Hadley Lee Lightcap, and an anthology of the band that we put together as a companion to the book, Acetone 1992-2001. This is the first ever anthology of the band and it features nine previously unreleased tracks.

Even A Tree Can Shed Tears

There was something in the air in the urban corners of late ‘60s Japan. Student protests and a rising youth culture gave way to the angura (short for “underground) movement that thrived on subverting traditions of the post-war years. Rejection of the Beatlemania-inspired Group Sounds and the squeaky clean College Folk movements led the rise of what came to be known in Japan as “New Music,” where authenticity mattered more than replicating the sounds of their idols.

Lynn Castle | Rose Colored Corner

Though most of the world may not know the songs of Lynn Castle, she is an artist whose work stretches across seven decades. She has created a diverse and vast (albeit mostly unreleased) discography of pop, folk, country, gothic, rock, punk, blues, and children's songs. We are very excited to continue its Lee Hazlewood Archive Series with Rose Colored Corner. For the first time ever Lynn is sharing recordings from her personal archive and telling her story.
