Soichi Terada’s OMODAKA work from 2001-19 collected in new compilation

Retro video game soundtracks meet electro, downtempo, and house.

WRWTFWW is releasing a new compilation covering Soichi Terada’s 2001-2019 output as OMODAKA, called ZENTSUU: Collected Works 2001-2019, this October.

Listen next: Discovering Japanese pop music from 1975-1985 with Shinichiro Yokota & Soichi Terada

Terada launched the alias in 2001, while trying to create a “boat racing song.”

ZENTSUU: Collected Works 2001-2019 by Omodaka

Collecting his output from 2001 to 2019, ZENTSUU fuses retro video game sounds with electro, downtempo, traditional Japanese music, and house.

It follows the label’s release of Midori Takada’s You Who Are Leaving To Nirvana — one of our favourite records from August.
