オランダの実験レーベルDead Mind Recordsが、2026年3月にリリースした再発コンピレーションレコードです。（オリジナルは1982年カセットリリース）

ミニマルウェーブ〜ポストパンク13曲を収録。

以下、レーベルによる解説です。

"1982年にTrumpettからリリースされたカセット『Colonial Vipers』は、オランダのホームテーピング・シーンが創造的な絶頂期にあった当時の様子を余すところなく捉えた作品だった。この種のコンピレーションとしては最も初期のもののひとつであり、多様なアンダーグラウンド・アーティストたちが集結し、そのほぼ全員が未発表曲を寄稿している。今回の再発盤では、その中から13曲の希少な楽曲が厳選され、この時代を象徴する実験的なエネルギーが際立っている。

当然ながら、Trumpettの中心的なアーティストであるEnde Shneaflietも参加しており、彼らのこの世のものとは思えないミニマル・シンセの楽曲は、80年代初頭の実験精神を捉えている。また、Doxa Sinistraは、コールドウェーブとエレクトロニクスを融合させ、その手法は今日でも驚くほど新鮮さを保っている。さらに、Van Kaye & Ignit、Nice Circles、The Actorといったアーティストも参加しており、彼らのミニマルで中毒性のあるトラックは、当時のDIYシンセエトスを体現している。Genetic Factor、Det Wiehl、De Fabriek、Muziekkamerといった追加の参加アーティストたちは、アヴァンギャルドとコンクリートインダストリアルサウンドワークスの境界線を曖昧にする、質感豊かで雰囲気のある楽曲を提供している。

今回、史上初めてヴァイナル化されたこの改訂版は、オリジナルのカセットテープをヨーロッパのアンダーグラウンドシーンにおける隠れた名盤たらしめたエネルギー、不気味な雰囲気、そして機械的なビートを忠実に再現している。これらの先駆的なトラックのあらゆるニュアンスが完全に引き出されるよう入念にマスタリングされており、ミニマルウェーブの愛好家や、初期オランダのポストパンク・シーンの革新的なサウンドに魅了されるすべての人にとって、必携の一枚である。"

From the label:

"Released in 1982 on Trumpett, the Colonial Vipers cassette offered an extensive snapshot of the Dutch home-taping scene at its creative peak. One of the earliest compilations of its kind, it brought together a diverse array of underground artists, nearly all contributing exclusive tracks. For this reissue, 13 of these rare pieces have been carefully selected, highlighting the experimental energy that defined the era.

Naturally, it features core Trumpett artists Ende Shneafliet, capturing the spirit of the early ‘80s experimentation with their otherworldly minimal synth composition and Doxa Sinistra, blending cold wave and electronics in ways that remain strikingly fresh today. Also present are acts such as Van Kaye & Ignit, Nice Circles and The Actor, whose minimal and infectious tracks epitomize the DIY synth ethos of the period. Additional contributors like Genetic Factor, Det Wiehl, De Fabriek and Muziekkamer offer textured, atmospheric pieces that blur the line between the avant-garde and concrete industrial sound works.

For the first time ever on vinyl, this revised edition preserves the energy, eerie atmospheres and mechanical beats that made the original cassette a hidden gem of the European underground. Carefully mastered to ensure every nuance of these pioneering tracks is fully realized, it is a must-have for minimal wave enthusiasts and anyone fascinated by the innovative sounds of the early Dutch post-punk scene."

In the context of his greater catalogue, this comparison could serve as a mission statement, a central conceit of his songs. Fittingly, In Airports is a retrospective synthesis of the many disparate genres and sonic ideas that have been explored in his earlier work: Four-track cassette recording, deformed samples and a surrealist approach to production, adjoined with nostalgic and introspective songwriting.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThere are hints of a newly confessional approach to lyricism that is plainspoken and direct. On the title track, Howard directly examines his relationship to music-making and how it has changed: “I made it all about me \/ Is that a tragedy \/ Used to put my headphones on \/ Escape into a new song.” This sort of self-interrogation emerges from an obsessive devotion to recording music that now spans more than half of Howard’s life. The omnivorous instrumental approach of his production has only deepened from several years spent taking detours into focused genre experiments.

Living with a purpose, and avoiding that sense of complacency that creeps in as you age. There's so much we can't control. So much so that it can blind us to how easily we could change.

In the context of his greater catalogue, this comparison could serve as a mission statement, a central conceit of his songs. Fittingly, In Airports is a retrospective synthesis of the many disparate genres and sonic ideas that have been explored in his earlier work: Four-track cassette recording, deformed samples and a surrealist approach to production, adjoined with nostalgic and introspective songwriting.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThere are hints of a newly confessional approach to lyricism that is plainspoken and direct.
