Tokyo\u2019s DJ Sodeyama returns as The People In Fog this June, delivering his new album under the alias, \u20181977\u2019, first time in eight years via Sound Of Vast.<\/p>\n
Yoshifumi Sodeyama better known to most as DJ Sodeyama has been a driving force in the Japanese underground electronic music scene for many years now, over the past decade and a half he\u2019s been releasing his techno material via the likes of Nina Kraviz’s \u0442\u0440\u0438\u043f, Dynamic Reflection, his own Arpa Records and more. Here though Sodeyama shifts focus to his The People In Fog guise with his new album, the alias was started in 2013 and is a project based on house grooves and unique beats. After the debut album \u2018A Ray of Light\u2019 was released eight years ago, he delivered three EPs for Sound Of Vast established in Amsterdam, among which, the \u2018Higher\u2019 EP turned out to be a big hit.<\/p>\n
Across the \u20181977\u2019 LP, named after the year Chicago\u2019s highly influential Warehouse was born, Sodeyama presents a range of styles in the field of House, from percussive-led, hypnotic offerings like opener \u2018South Jefferson\u2019 and \u2018Less Is More\u2019, the jazz-tinged aesthetic of \u2018No Boundaries\u2019 and more groove driven compositions like \u2018Come To Me feat. Monkey Timers\u2019 and \u2018Mr. Dub\u2019 which lay focus on swinging drums, snaking bass grooves and chanting vocals.<\/p>\n
The final three tracks from the project also shine a light on some acid house influences with a recurring theme of squelchy 303 lines amidst ethereal pad textures, dynamic drums and infectious vocal hooks.<\/p>\n
\u20181977\u2019 presents the accumulative knowledge and experience of a DJ career which reaches beyond 30 years and further showcases Sodeyama\u2019s passion towards music, all compiled into one long player.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":535528,"template":"","meta":{"ghostkit_customizer_options":"","ghostkit_custom_css":"","ghostkit_custom_js_head":"","ghostkit_custom_js_foot":"","ghostkit_typography":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[12362],"product_tag":[],"giftcard-category":[],"musicartist":[28962],"musiclabel":[28963],"musicstyle":[37900,37914,37955],"distributormusic":[38271],"musicyear":[],"musiccountry":[],"weekmusic":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-535532","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-out-of-stock","7":"musicartist-the-people-in-fog","8":"musiclabel-sound-of-vast","9":"musicstyle-breakbeat","10":"musicstyle-deep-house","11":"musicstyle-house","12":"distributormusic-rush-hour","14":"first","15":"outofstock","16":"featured","17":"taxable","18":"shipping-taxable","19":"purchasable","20":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/535532","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/535528"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=535532"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=535532"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=535532"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=535532"},{"taxonomy":"giftcard-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/giftcard-category?post=535532"},{"taxonomy":"musicartist","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musicartist?post=535532"},{"taxonomy":"musiclabel","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musiclabel?post=535532"},{"taxonomy":"musicstyle","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musicstyle?post=535532"},{"taxonomy":"distributormusic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/distributormusic?post=535532"},{"taxonomy":"musicyear","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musicyear?post=535532"},{"taxonomy":"musiccountry","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musiccountry?post=535532"},{"taxonomy":"weekmusic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/weekmusic?post=535532"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
