Ken Ishii - Reference To Difference

Remastered, with original track-list available on vinyl for the first time
New liner notes by Martyn Pepperell

“Ken Ishii has risen to be one of techno‘s biggest names” Bandcamp Daily

A pivotal moment in the history of techno, ambient and electronic music from Japan. An important milestone in a journey to explore the endless possibilities of music and a precious result of our passion and adventure at the time. - Manabu Yamazaki (Sublime Records)

The musician and DJ Ken Ishii sits right at the pinnacle of techno’s most noteworthy, but although a game changer for the artist personally – and for Japanese electronic music in general – his 1994 album ‘Reference to Difference’ is something of an unsung gem today.

Now reissued and remastered, released to mark the 30th anniversary of Musicmine Records, and available on vinyl with its original track-list for the first time, this stunning, lesser-known classic is ripe for rediscovery.
