Almost completely unknown in the west, Masahiro Sugaya has been composing and
producing music since the 1980s in an exceptionally wide range of fields and
practices. From arrangements for musical acts like the acoustic guitar duo Gontiti
to acousmatic diffusion at spaces like Pariss Groupe de Recherches Musicales (GRM),
Sugayas reach is almost exhaustive in its breadth, but it was in the 80s bubble-era
kankyo ongaku scene that he first found his musical voice. Horizon, Volume 1 presents
a window into these works, culled from Sugayas early scores for experimental Tokyo
theatre group Pappa Tarahumura.

Makoto Inoue and Yasushi Yamashitas Inoyama Land project spans nearly four decades,
still active to this day. A portmanteau of their family names, the "Land" of Inoyama
hovers between imagined mythical space and concrete reality, extending beyond physical
releases into installations, site-specific sound design and theatre scores. After
their famed Haruomi Hosono-produced 1983 release Danzindan-Pojidon, the duo became
involved in the budding environmental music business that was taking shape in Tokyo
during the development boom of the asset bubble - working directly with figures like
Hiroshi Yoshimura (with whom they developed sound design for the International Stadium
in Yokohama) and Takashi Sekiguchi (Bamboo from Asia).
