Vinyl reissue of Japanese folk spirit Aritomo’s second LP, originally released on his own Hakanairo imprint in a long-gone edition of 200 copies. This edition comes with pro-printed sleeves reproducing the original artwork and a four page booklet on parchment paper. Blooming The Ena sails closer to the soft breeze coming out of the whole Org stable, with weightless acid folk arrangements combining acoustic guitar, bamboo flute, piano and chimes with vocals that come out of the Tori Kudo/Go Hirano/Shinji Shibayama approach to naive psych. Some of the arrangements have the same strange free-floating folk feel as Richard Young’s Jagjaguwar sides, albeit with a more overtly stoned/zoned appeal. If a track from this hadda turned up on one of the early Tokyo Flashback sides this guy would already have been canonised. Recommended.
