Buckle up for a long one. I think running a label has ruined music for me. A few months before I moved to Paris -- so about 13 months ago -- I decided to start slowing down ADR, at least insofar as being a classic record label releasing other peoples' music.

For @SPIN I wrote about the improbable new live album from Fuubutsushi, which among many other milestones, brings the total of great live albums recorded in Columbia, Missouri, to two. spin.com/2025/07/fuubut…

with great pleasure, i'd like to announce a new solo record that is very near & dear to my heart - "Forgetting is Violent." out on September 19th via American Dreams. featuring Aaron Turner, Faith Coloccia, Gemma Thompson, Otay::onii & Mat Ball 💙 patrickshiroishi.bandcamp.com/album/forgetti…

Announcing the new solo LP from the one + only @pshiroishi - out 9/19 Forgetting is Violent is a searing meditation on racism & colonialism, and his first to feature guests, including Aaron Turner, Gemma Thompson, Faith Coloccia, otay::onii, & Mat Ball. patrickshiroishi.bandcamp.com/album/forgetti…

Musicians who once passed each other like ships in the night suddenly noticed each other’s signals blinking across the firmament of the internet. It was an unexpectedly fertile time; one of its most fertile projects was Fuubutsushi. Columbia Deluxe review: klofmag.com/2025/07/fuubut…

"Altogether, the music registers as an inspired attempt at collective healing. To call Fuubutsushi post-category is an understatement. To call Columbia Deluxe one of the best records of 2025 is right on the money." Thank you @VinylDistrict
