Umeko Ando’s Ihunke hits right in the heart. This summer, we received enthusiastic responses to the Ihunke vinyl re-issue from all over the planet. We invited a group of great international producers to remix the repetitive, mantric vibes of Umeko Ando’s Ainu folklore songs. The folktronica wizard Nicolá Cruz (Multi Culti, Ecuador) replaces Umeko’s voice with a traditional flute from the Andes and infuses "Battaki" with driving, percussive spirits. The re-issue of "Ihunke" as a 2LP was the second step of the collaboration, followed now by this remix album. It comes as a vinyl EP with six remixes and as an 11-track digital package.

Umeko Ando (1932-2004) was a folk singer from Japan. She was a representative of the Ainu culture on the Hokkaido Island in the north of Japan. Ihunke was her first album which was recorded with the Ainu musician and dub producer Oki Kano in 2000. Ihunke is following last year’s single Iuta Upopo which had been received with overwhelming enthusiasm and was quickly sold out. The 16 Ainu songs on Ihunke are delicate, natural gems
