''Athletica'' is a 1997 EP by Takako Minekawa. ==Track listing== # "Metromusica" - 8:33 # "Slow Flow Mole" - 7:00 # "Klaxon! (A New Type)" - 4:12 # "Fabie (1,2,3 Exercise)" - 5:25 # "Fabie (1,2,3 Beat it)" - 3:31 Japanese-only release from 1997, recorded between Roomic Cube and Cloudy Cloud Calculator. The sound is similar to those records, but a little bit more experimental; EPs as a rule tend to be a less serious affair than full-length albums, and as such, they tend to have a bit more leeway with what gets included. The Athletica EP also has another version of "Fabie", but it's pretty different, this one having beats reminiscent of early '80s hip hop, complete with TR-808 beats. For this EP, Takako enlisted the help of ex-A.D.S. (Asteroid Desert Songs) guitarist, Yasuo Takai. It is an experimental album, and very wacky in general. The album has more beats than Takako's usual material and is very catchy. "Metromusica" is a miasma of bleeps & metronome clicks, and Takako's childlike voice. It blends into the soothing "Slow Flow Mole." "Klaxon! (A New Type)" is a Takako Minekawa/Buffalo Daughter collaboration, that later appeared on Recubed. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Athletica」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
