While in Tokyo a few months ago, one of my favorite musicians on earth, Makoto Kubota, agreed to sit down for an interview ¡simply because I asked! Given his graciousness and humility, that interview soon turned into dinner as we were joined by another brilliant music mind I deeply admire, Yosuke Kitazawa (of Los Angeles-based label ).
The evening proved to be one of the most memorable of my life and career, as we discussed anything from Kubota's work with Les Rallizes Dénudés to his family's long cinematic history to tacos to those danged San Francisco freaks.
Now, as Temporal Drift prepares to release Jittoku '76, a never-before-heard Les Rallizes Dénudés demo remastered by Kubota, it's my distinct honor to share this interview with you here, per the link in el bio.
