So, it's been exactly a year since the man died now. He deserves more appreciation around here, and he deserves more appreciation outside of here.
He was a musician with a kind of versatility that is quite unique and definitely remarkable, and with an output of consistent quality.
Because his shit is great through and through, pick any track, any of it - beyond the masterpiece that is Sakura! haha
He delved into house, techno, breakbeat, trance, ambient, "IDM", post-rockish stuff, jazzy shit here and there and just did it all like a master.
He apparently died without his family knowing he was a talented musician, and I guess family means relatives, if he was single.
Which in that case is kinda, yeah, you know.
But he is of course far from unknown, so there should be another bastard or two in here who has something to say about him, whether positive or negative, he deserves a little recognition and why not pick his death day as a symbolically appropriate choice lol.
At least some tunes should be posted, because the words are honestly superfluous imo.

I could go on yeah but I can just say he's worth listening to and your loss if you don't.
