The shoegaze movement that built short prosperity by bands such as My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive and Cocteau Twins in 90's returns as nu-gaze and it's a pleasure to release this record titled Half Dreaming - an Asian shoegaze compilation album brought to people all over the world by Quince Records. A lot of people seem to have much interest on how shoegaze/dreampop scene in Japan and Asia is now in progress or how much retro-futurist artist from the viewpoint of electronica such as Ulrich Schnauss and Manual exists. Actually, it is never an easy labor to find many new
Asian talents in this kind of genre. Though, they will be compared with the US & European shoegaze-influenced bands soon, and it should be recognized through Half Dreaming first. It
features together sixteen bands with a strong passion for the shoegazing style, some artists are well known already in an Asian indie music scene, others have a debut record in near future. The compilation is including only for the new song, unreleased version and re-recorded tracks. Tracklisting:
