Reflecting on the early musical achievements of Toru Yamanaka and Teiji Furuhashi in Dumb Type, conatala/pianola records will reissue their 1985 work “Plan of Sleep” and 1986 work Every Dog Has His Day” on vinyl for the first time. In collaboration with EM Records, which is preparing to release Toru Yamanakas new work, a memorabilia exhibition will be held. This exhibition will feature a special CD containing home-recorded demo tracks by Yamanaka and recordings of the NEW WAVE band R-STILL, which Yamanaka and Furuhashi formed before Dumb Type.
Yamanaka pursued a more alternative musical style after a period of exploring progressive rock and NEW WAVE with his band. He was influenced by a wide range of artists, starting with Steve Reich, Wim Mertens, and Philip Glass, and extending to Laurie Anderson, Meredith Monk, and Robert Wilson, who combined minimal music with avant-garde performance. This archive includes home-recorded tracks documenting his exploratory process and studio recordings of R-STILL, tracing Yamanaka’s musical journey. The special CD will be available for sale at the venue, limited to 300 copies.
