Solmania's limited edition vinyl reissue of the Re-Rurr LP is a monumental work of avant-garde noise music that immerses listeners in a sonic experience unlike any other. Led by the visionary Masahiko Ohno, who founded Solmania in 1984, this reissue serves as a testament to the boundless creativity and technical brilliance that have established Solmania as a trailblazer in the Japanese music landscape. Ohno's unconventional approach to crafting electric guitars from spare parts has not only yielded unique instruments but has also paved the way for a musical journey that is as innovative as it is captivating.
Originally released on cassette by Fatagaga Tapes in 1985, the two expansive tracks featured on this vinyl reissue invite listeners to embark on a transcendent voyage through experimental soundscapes and uncharted musical territories. Ohno's mastery of multi-neck guitars and harp guitars, with their unconventional body shapes and peculiar pickup placements, creates a sonic tapestry that is both haunting and sublime. Drawing inspiration from various musical genres such as progressive, punk, metal, noise, and drone music, Solmania's compositions not only defy conventional boundaries but also elevate the art of free improvisation to new and exhilarating heights.On side A of the album, listeners are taken on a mesmerizing voyage through a mystical landscape of shimmering chords and intricate melodies, each note resonating with a sense of ethereal beauty and enigmatic allure. As the music unfolds, Ohno's exceptional technical prowess and profound musical sensitivity reveal themselves, guiding the audience through a sonic journey that is not only introspective but also truly awe-inspiring. The interplay of harmonies and textures creates a sonic tapestry that is both intricate and captivating, inviting listeners to lose themselves in the otherworldly soundscape that Ohno masterfully crafts. Each note feels like a brushstroke on a sonic canvas, painting a picture of ethereal beauty and emotional depth that transcends the boundaries of traditional music.
As the album transitions to side B, the exploration of free noise sculpting reaches new heights, plunging the listener into a realm of raw, unfiltered sound that challenges perception and sparks a spirit of adventurous exploration and discovery. Ohno's command of improvisation and experimentation takes center stage, as intricate layers of sound intertwine and collide in a cacophony of sonic innovation. The boundaries between structured composition and abstract noise blur, creating a sense of unpredictability and excitement that propels the listener into uncharted sonic territory. With each passing moment, the music becomes a vehicle for self-discovery and sonic exploration, urging the listener to embrace the unknown and venture into the depths of creative expression.
Through the progression from side A to side B, the Re-Rurr LP reissue becomes a transformative sonic odyssey that not only challenges traditional notions of music but also invites listeners to embark on a deep and introspective journey of self-discovery. The multifaceted nature of Masahiko Ohno's musical prowess truly comes to the fore in this reissue, where his ability to seamlessly blend disparate elements like guitar, tape, radio, metal, turntable, and vocals creates a rich and dynamic sonic tapestry that captivates the listener's imagination. Ohno's innovative use of these diverse instruments and mediums not only showcases his technical skill but also underscores his artistic vision, pushing the boundaries of traditional music-making and challenging the listener to engage with sound in new and unexpected ways. With each track on the album, Ohno masterfully navigates a complex web of textures and atmospheres, weaving together intricate layers of sound that evoke a wide range of emotions and sensations. The result is a deeply immersive listening experience that transports the audience to a realm where music transcends its conventional constraints and becomes a medium for profound self-exploration and reflection. Ohno's bold experimentation and fearless creativity shine through in every note, inviting the listener to embark on a transformative sonic journey that is as enigmatic as it is enlightening.
The Re-Rurr LP reissue stands as a testament to Solmania's enduring legacy in the realm of guitar drone music. With its dense harmonics, hypnotic overtones, and immersive sonic textures, this release not only showcases Ohno's visionary creativity but also pushes the boundaries of musical expression to new and uncharted territories. Whether you are a dedicated follower of Solmania or a newcomer to the world of experimental noise music, this vinyl reissue promises a transformative and enlightening experience that will leave a lasting impression on all who dare to immerse themselves in its captivating soundscape.

HOW WE SHIP RECORDS (AND OTHER ITEMS) TO YOU:
With the exception of a few odd-sized items, ALL LPs are packaged for shipment and sent to you in PROFESSIONAL QUALITY, SUPERIOR RECTANGULAR SHAPED, CORNER-PROTECTING CORRUGATED CARDBOARD RECORD MAILERS WITH FILLER PADS. SATISFACTION GUARANTEED!
We are record collectors here, too, and we pledge to package your records (or any other item) in a way in which we would like to have records/other items packaged, sent to us and received by us as well.
When packaging up records that are non-factory sealed items (as is standard for many import releases) or are open "used" items for shipment, we remove the LP and inner-sleeve from the album cover and place them on the outside of the cover to protect the cover from being subjected to any potential seam-splitting during transit.
When packaging up factory sealed records for shipment, we leave the item sealed, intact, as is. HOWEVER. If a customer REQUESTS that we unseal a factory sealed record to send with the LP and inner sleeve on the outside of the cover (to protect the cover from any potential seam-splitting during transit) we will do so. Please be sure to make this request of unsealing your record for shipment if that is your packaging preference.
When packaging up non-factory sealed items (or factory sealed items that have been unsealed at the buyer's request) that have custom company or other manner of printed inner-sleeves, we remove the record from those printed inner sleeves (returning the printed inner sleeves back into the album cover) and place them inside brand new, generic white paper inner sleeves, which are then placed on the outside of the album cover to protect both the album cover AND the original printed inner sleeves from being subjected to any potential seam splitting during transit. We do this for all new AND used items that are in our stock.
All LPs, be they new or used, are sheathed inside of new, protective plastic outer sleeves (with the exceptions of space or weight limitations that may occur with packaging your items - such exceptions will take place when they allow for a lower cost of shipping charged for your total order.)
We go the extra mile to protect and preserve your items, folks!
With but a few exceptions (odd size combined orders or other package configurations and considerations...)
All 12" records are sent to you packaged in quality 15" x 1" x 13" rectangular shaped corrugated cardboard LP mailers.
All 10" records are sent to you packaged in quality 13" x 1" x 13" square shaped corrugated cardboard LP mailers.
All 7" records are sent to you packaged in quality 8" x 1" x 8" square shaped corrugated cardboard 7" record mailers.
All Compact Discs are sent to you packaged in quality 7" x 1" x 5" rectangular shaped cardboard CD mailers.
All Cassettes are sent to you packaged in quality 5 1/2" x 1" x 3" rectangular shaped cardboard Cassette mailers
(Note: Cassettes sent to international addresses will be packaged in a larger box of some appropriate size configuration to accommodate the size and application of mailing/customs labels sent to international addresses.)
All Cassettes and CDs or records that come packaged in odd-sized or odd-custom packaging are sent to you in quality corrugated cardboard boxes of various unspecified dimensions, with various sorts of interior padding (styrofoam peanuts, bubble wrap, cardboard filler pads, etc.) to protect and preserve your items.
