Yotoko - Wet Ink (cd & 2xlp)
Delsin Records, 42dsr





After the well received =E2=80=9CAll Creation=E2=80=9D 12=E2=80=9Ds Delsin Records drops 
Yotoko's 'Wet Ink'. Yotoko are Shifty & Domu (JCR, 2000Black, Archive). Yotoko 
stands for a perfect fusion between Broken Beat, Techno and Soul. Their album 
is not about breaking barriers, but it is their own little twisted version of 
what they call "techno". For Yotoko techno can be heard in everything, so as 
such it is all techno. Domu and Shifty are influenced by lots of different 
stuff, soul, jazz, disco, hip hop, techno, some old break beat, new broken 
stuff.. as well 20 pence mad charity shop finds..

The album is about Yotoko making music they think is cool and realizing that 
all this music is the same no matter what the BPM or groove. Domu started as 
Sonar Circle for 4 Hero=E2=80=99s Reinforced label. Later on active as Domu for 
labels as Archive and 2000 Black and together with Archive label boss Volcov 
for the JCR-label with their album as Rima. Shifty is Domu=E2=80=99s longtime 
comrade, making his first musical public appearance as Yotoko. The album=E2=80=99s 
excellent artwork has been done by Amsterdam=E2=80=99s Machine.
