Shugo Tokumaru takes the idea of the multi-instrumentalist to another level. Exit, his most recent full length release, features over 50 different instruments, most played by Shugo himself. He even records it all himself. His music is a little left of center though Exit will appeal to Western audiences more than his earlier work. It reminds me a little of Jonsi‘s solo album Go.

He has a new three track single out, though apparently in Japan they call that a ‘mini album’, but I’m not fooled, I know value for money when I see it. The three track ‘mini album’ doesn’t seem to be available here but a single can be streamed on his myspace or you can watch the video immediately below.
