Haven't reviewed anything from over in Malaysia before I don't think. 'Windvane & Window' is a lush CD of twinkly, hazy, sun & paradise electronica by Flica who is most definitely schooled in the Post Arovane 'Tides' college of thought. The beats sound like Fizzarum at one point but the overall sheen couldn't be less Icy Russian if it tried. Warm & lazy with plenty of gently relaxing samples, rolling piano segments, breezy vocal snippets & spanish guitar effects. I could see this on Morr a few years ago, a tribute to the early Noughties electronica scene that glows with positively! For fans of Isan, Flau, Schole (who have kindly reissued this!) etc... includes an Akira Kosemura mix!

Last February, flica has made a debut with their 1st album “windvane and window” and went
dead-stock with such popularity. This time, schole records present the album as Japanese
domestic version.
As a debut album, “windvane and window” is created by minutely structured beats mixed
with some other elements such as sweet voice sampling, and melodies which tenderly
played with piano or guitar. Though we know the process from their 2nd album “nocturnal” ,
it is never enough to listen to this heart warming masterpiece. Also, Haruka Nakamura and
Akira Kosemura have participated and put their remixes into the album.
Better yet, as Japanese domestic album, it has some unpublished tracks [T11] [T12], and
[T13] remixed by paniyolo, who’ s just released his debut album from schole!!
