Accompanied with a double sided 2-panel insert and double sided 4 panel poster (full details below). Magic Thread is Susumu Yokotas deeply soothing and delicate debut release on the Skintone label. With a spartan palette of sounds and textures, Yokota taps into a fundamentally human need to fuse and connect disparate fibres, magically forming work which glistens and pulsates with life. Magic Thread originally came out in 1998 as a limited-edition CD release of 500 copies. Initially intended for the Japanese market, it came without any artwork in a standard transparent CD case adorned only by a sticker containing essential album information and a quote: Somewhere in the process of evolution, the spinning and weaving of thread became possible for humankind. How did this come to pass?It can only be that the thread is possessed of magical properties. Yokota, 1998. Limited edition gold 2×12 vinyl LP.
