5/24/25.

Over the years, Morr Music (Berlin, Germany) has probably not received the attention it deserves. It's only gotten three mentions, but each release (especially yumbo) have given me joy.

Eddie Marcon "Carpet of Fallen Leaves" is the new album from Eddie Corman and Jules Marcon - two Japanese artists based in Himeji, Japan. The band have a sound the recalls the work of later-era Pastels. It also reminds me a bit of Tenniscoats and Vashti Bunyan.

Eddie Marcon have worked with both Maher Shalal Hash Baz, and Nagisa Ni Te.

Eddie Marcon - Yahho No Potori

Obscure

Genres: Folk, Psychedelic Folk

Language: Japanese

I was researching some Japanese Folk albums in the same vein of Ichiko Aoba, who is one of my favorite japanese Folk artists out there. I stumbled across this album and its cover art intruiged me, so I decided to check it out, and it’s fantastic. Since then it’s been one of my favorites. Sparse acoustic backing with mostly female vocals... drums, saxophones, male vocals, piano and several other instruments are used only in the right moments, not to shift the focus away from the calm and relaxing atmosphere... it feels like the extra instruments at times are only used to put emphasis onto the acoustic, sparse instrumentation. If you’re looking for a calm japanese Folk album, this is a must,

Yahho no Potori, Eddie Marcon (2009)

Eddie Marcon perform folk in a very meticulous sort of way; the way the instruments are played and arranged, the precision and interweaving, gentle sophistication and careful flair, have several jazz-like qualities. When those qualities accumulate the results are extraordinarily pretty – though those peaks are very much the exception rather than the norm.
