WEB (Takuya Sugimoto) has a full-length CD out on Soup-Disk's Silverstone 
imprint ("Soup Disk Racing League"). under the name NAGI. the album, _Michi_, 
sounds like a less sampler-crazed DJ Shadow given a thorough Clear once-over. 
moody piano and heavily-accented syncopated beats predominate. skip directly to 
"fuyuu" or "two carp under the ice" (imagine Harold Budd duetting with x@x) if 
you get a chance to test-drive this beautiful album. the 'inspirations' list is 
fascinating, including Req, .O.rang, Mo Boma, RLW/P16D4, Gastr del Sol, AMP, 
Nina Simone, Cut Chemist, Oval, Lateef, Kenny Larkin, Eddie "Flashin'" Fowlkes, 
Mouse on Mars, Peanut Butter Wolf, and Ryuichi Sakamoto. that probably tells you 
more about _Michi_ than any lame track-by-track could. very very special.
