TIP!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" class=\"ApplePlainTextBody\"\u003eOutside of the international house underground, where his early ‘90s works for the Far East Recording label he co-founded with Shinichiro Yokota are rightly celebrated as bona-fide classics, Soichi Terada is best-known for his work composing music for video games. Yet until now, few of his productions for video games have been released outside of Japan, especially on vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" class=\"ApplePlainTextBody\"\u003eApes In The Net, a six-track EP featuring music composed for the popular PlayStation 1 series Ape Escape, sets the record straight. It not only showcases Terada’s quality as a composer and producer, but also his versatility. Like much of Terada’s work on the Ape Escape series, the tracks featured don’t explore deep, New York and New Jersey influenced house sounds, but rather his lesser-celebrated love of jungle and drum \u0026amp; bass – a sound he fully explored on 1996 album Sumo Jungle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" class=\"ApplePlainTextBody\"\u003e“The producer of the Ape Escape games heard that and got in touch,” Soichi remembers. “They asked me to make the soundtrack, and then work on the music for the sequels after that. I used to love making music with AKAI hardware samplers, synthesisers, and computers, so I played and recorded the tracks using almost the same methods as I did when I made house music. Using breakbeats and audio samples with a sampler was the most useful way to make the soundtracks\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" class=\"ApplePlainTextBody\"\u003eThe six tracks on show, which were originally recorded in the ‘90s but reconstructed and remastered for Japan-only CD and digital releases over a decade ago, mix elements of Terada’s familiar deep house style – think warming chords and pads, memorable melodies, and emotive musical motifs – with blistering D\u0026amp;B breakbeats, 16-bit synth sounds, electronic bleeps and undeniably weighty basslines.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Far East Recording","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56484056105338,"sku":"FER06903","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/7435\/5631\/files\/R-35718820-1763759518-2213.jpg?v=1768460849","url":"https:\/\/vinylunderground.co.uk\/products\/soichi-terada-apes-in-the-net-video-game-edition","provider":"vinylunderground.co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
