The album spans 24 cuts almost exclusively from Móatún 7 artists, and these were selected from over 100 entries. It must have been quite the job selecting them. It’s a beautiful collection of emotional ambient music.
A beautiful collection of emotional ambient music
I’ve been wondering where and even how to start this review for a short while now. Almost everyone involved in ambient music will have heard of the name Tetsu Inoue at some point, yet the man himself has taken on an almost mythical and legendary status, not just for his music, but for the fact we actually know very little about him. People have searched long and hard for him to no avail. So we are left with the music and the mythos, and perhaps this is exactly how Tetsu Inoue would have wanted it.

It’s a beautiful collection of emotional ambient music. Deeply moving in parts, the overall flow of the album is exquisite considering it’s a compilation. Some highlights include GB Edge, D York, Stefan Kibellus, Nacht Plank and Darren McClure. Really though, there’s too much good material to mention it all.
Móatún 7 から Tetsu Inoue へ is Japanese for “Dedication from Móatún 7 to Tetsu Inoue.”
から Tetsu Inoue へ is available on Móatún 7. [Bandcamp]
