LULLATONE presents THE BEDTIME BEAT; a reverie and imaginative sleep-walk through the minimal avant-pop stylings of Nagoya’s favourite bedroom tune-maestros. The Bedtime Beat is a vision of pop perfection, at just over 20 minutes long this LP confirms that minimal is certainly the new cute! Between the bath water solo of ‘The Bathtime Beat’, the incredible beatbox grooves care of Yoshima Tomida and some of the most elegant and evocative melodies (delicately recorded on tape) from Shawn Seymour, this record sets a new benchmark for micro-pop.
“In the world of Seymour and Tomida, cuteness is merely beauty of another kind.” Pitchfork
