We got the sad news that Kageyama Masashi passed away. The composer of one of the most beautiful retro soundtracks of all time, Gimmick! I've listened to it so many times, and I have it on again right now.

It was great to put out Noisewaves' self-titled debut in 2010. As I've said before, there were plenty of other labels doing straight up chip releases really well around this time, so I aimed to put out chiptune + something else, whenever the opportunity arose. #chiptune

Btw I'm in Seoul right now surviving the summer. Drinks are key to this.

I'm finally getting back on it, looking back through the label's releases. 5 months since my last post, but better late than never! Part of the problem was I lost my login for Bluesky when my laptop died 😂

Emanon was the second release we put out by lpower in 2009, who I believe at this time was still going by his full name: Lawrence Power. And yes, that is his real name.

Once again, I (Joe) really can't take much credit for this next release, which is undoubtedly the biggest thing we ever put out. It was Ross/arcadecoma who curated the whole tribute. When he sent it to me, I was blown away, but I still didn't realize it would get the attention it did.

Recently made the switch over here, if you know us, drop a follow. If you don't, we're a chip/electronic netlabel since 2008!
