"For over four decades, Reiko Omura and Tori Kudo have endlessly woven themselves throughout the avant-garde and underground scene of Japan. While internationally appreciated in countless incarnations and contexts (Maher Shalal Hash Baz, Guys & Dolls), if one were to seek out an early moment in which the two artists created something truly awe inspiring, 1980's Tennowould be it. As Noise, the duo experimented with the juxtaposition of Kudo's extended organ-based dirges (be they eerie and/or harmonious) and fragile, meditative harmonies found in Omura's voice and more abstract moments of minimal trumpet, sparse drum and atonal guitar. Simultaneously tense and beautiful, echoes of Tenno can be found resonating in the work of their contemporaries and countless others spanning the past 40 years and an infinite amount more to come. The LP was originally released by ALM and subsequently reissued in 1997 on CD (Pataphysique) and LP (Org), and on CD again in 2005 (Alchemy). Just past it's 40 year anniversary, Moone Records is elated to announce the first edition of Tennoreleased outside of Japan as a LP in a limited first run of 500 copies -- bringing the monumental release back into print on vinyl for the first time in 23 years." - Moone.
