NTS Guide to: Underground Japanese Psychedelia Vol 2 - 17th June 2026

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Japan became the birthplace of a distinctive and intense form of psychedelic music, emerging from the underground scene and centred around pioneering labels like PSF Records. This movement was marked by a raw, dissonant, and fuzzed-out sound that combined elements of noise, free jazz, and traditional psychedelic rock.

This two hour sequel episode documents more of the bands that played a role in shaping this unique musical landscape such as Ghost, Hanadensha, Keiji Haino and more.
