Here at Akavinyl , we have many Japanese CDs for sale, many of which have bonus tracks. We thought it high time to showcase these for you so you can know what you’re getting if you buy from us. Enjoy installment #4: Girlpower, with our special CD correspondent, Stefon! All of these items are or will be available on this site. Click the links below to see more details for each.
Bjork – “Debut” – 1994 (in Japan)
Stefon: “Akavinyl’s hottest CD is “Debut.” Released in the year between 1992 and 1994, this leftfield opus has everything; big time sensuality, violent happiness, humans behaving like themselves,… penis as a boy…”
Bjork – “Post” – 1995
Stefon: “If you’re looking for furious women in paper machet dresses, look no further than Akavinyl’s hottest CD: “Post.” Needless to say, this updown tempo trip hop scotch CD has everything: hyper ballads, modern things, …headphones, more inserts.”
Dubstar – “Disgraceful” – 1995
Stefon: “Released officially at only 3 record shops in Newcastle, this drift pop handjob has everything: Don’t blame me I’m just a girl she said, and my personal mantra: Anywhere.”
Dubstar – “Make It Better” – 2000
Stefon: “If you’re looking for fun second dates which you never mention to your friends, then I have just the thing. Look no further than Akavinyl’s hottest CD: “Make It Better.” Needless to say, this electro knob twiddle hand sandwich has everything: new friends, arcs on fire, … taking it.”
Sneaker Pimps – “Becoming X” – 1996
Stefon: “Crafted and bubble-wrapped inside a Sketchers outlet shop next to a Chess King, this pre-pubescent skeeze core CD has everything: post modern sleaze, spin spin sugar… water babies.”
Beth Orton – “Central Reservation” – 1999
Stefon: “If you’re looking to folk your way to the middle, then I have just the thing. Look no further than Akavinyl’s hottest CD: “Central Reservation.” Doodled on the back of a napkin at a boysenberry encrusted IHOP in NoLo, this far too sunny for living in England CD has everything: sweet declines, devil songs… stolen cars.”
We hope you enjoyed reading and check back next week for the 5th installment of the Akavinyl Bonus Track Spotlight.
