{"product_id":"art-form-ii-various-artists","title":"Art Form II - Various Artists","description":"\u003cp\u003eWRWTFWW Records is very pleased to announce the first-ever vinyl release of \u003cem\u003eArt Form II\u003c\/em\u003e, the seminal 1998 Various Artists compilation from Tokyo’s cult label FORM@ RECORDS, now available as a limited edition double LP housed in a heavyweight sleeve, as part of the ongoing collaborative series between the Swiss and Japanese labels. Initially available only in CD form, Art Form 2 emerges as a quiet artifact from an exploratory phase in FORM@ RECORDS’ late-1990s trajectory. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFlowing with carefully sculpted rhythms, immersive sound design, and a subtle sense of machine soul, \u003cem\u003eArt Form II\u003c\/em\u003e2 reflects the maturity of the FORM@ aesthetic in 1998. The compilation resonates with the spirit of Warp’s Artificial Intelligence era, Carl Craig’s melodic futurism, Ken Ishii’s cerebral techno, B12’s deep electronics, and Ian O’Brien’s emotive touch, while remaining unmistakably rooted in its own local context. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe compilation drifts through the deeper layers of Tokyo’s electronic underground, where IDM, techno, ambient, and downtempo dissolve into one another within an atmosphere of deliberate experimentation. Both intimate and forward-looking, it preserves a moment in which a local scene, largely unseen, was patiently reshaping the future beyond the reach of prevailing global narratives. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTimeless and singular, it stands as a beautifully preserved time capsule of underground electronic music.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WRWTFWW Records","offers":[{"title":"2LP","offer_id":50990577516822,"sku":"RMX-61176","price":35.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7750\/2998\/files\/f11983a43ac85be4c9f40882e00315ec.jpg?v=1769442773","url":"https:\/\/resident-music-uk.myshopify.com\/products\/art-form-ii-various-artists","provider":"Resident Music UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
