You can find out more about the artists and their work at the All Music Guide. Here's information on a few of them:BoredomsOf all the artists in Japan's thriving noise-music community, the Boredoms undoubtedly had the most fun. Although their maniacally extreme cacophony was by no means accessible listening, it was underpinned by a gleeful sense of humor that helped them find a limited (but still surprisingly wide) audience among alternative rockers. A typical Boredoms track might feature massively distorted guitars, squealing synths, any number of odd found-object noisemakers, or studio-manipulation effects; conventional song structures are thrown out the window in favor of abrupt, whiplash-inducing changes of direction. With Sonic Youth and Nirvana counting themselves among the Boredoms' fans, the group actually signed major-label deals during the early '90s, both in Japan and the U.S., and played the Lollapalooza main stage. Although the Boredoms' American deal eventually fell through, they continued to record steadily in Japan, progressing into a sort of trance-inducing, psychedelia-tinged experimental rock indebted to the '70s Krautrock movement.
ManitobaStart Breaking My Heart, the debut album from Canada's Manitoba (Dan Snaith) for The Leaf Label, underlined his status amongst the chattering electronic classes as one of the brightest talents to emerge over the course of 2001. He cooks up messed beats, lost grooves, and a future jazz mentality in a single frothy disc which stabbed, hooted, and crinkled its way through swathes of rich percussion. Having already proved himself master of the sublime with his debut EP, People Eating Fruit, the year before, his subsequent Paul's Birthday opened him out even further with crazed percussives losing the grooves entirely, often before a single element extracted something beautiful from what in other hands would be tuneless chaos. Having moved to London, he booted his connections to the post-folk and jazz scenes back to Canada with the Give'r EP, which locked thumping beats to an almost-garage sub-plot. His second album, Up in Flames (from which this escerpt is taken), followed in 2003. The Far East Side BandThe Far East Side Band play an amalgam of jazz, classical and blues blended with the trio's Asian heritage. Jason Kao Hwang (composition, violin), Yukio Tsuji (percussion, shakuhachi, voice) and Sang Won Park (kayagum, ajang, voice) have released Caverns on the New World label.
