Anchorsong - 'Ceremonial' is out now worldwide!
Stream / Download - TruThoughts.lnk.to/ceremonial
Out 22nd January on Tru Thoughts, ‘Ceremonial’ is the second full album from Anchorsong – AKA Tokyo-born, London-based electronic artist Masaaki Yoshida. The LP continues the progression of 2014’s “Mawa” EP (BBE), on which this ever-curious musician began to blend the minimalist, catchy melodic phrasing and unique beats of his acclaimed debut album ‘Chapters’ (2011) with a newfound love for vintage African music. Influences from Orchestre Poly-Rythmo to Fela Kuti-style Afrobeat to High Life now hold sway, while he retains the crisp production sensibility and immersive arrangements that set him apart and have seen him supported by the likes of Huw Stephens, Gilles Peterson and Q Magazine.
