The host Wei Ting of the episode is a musician herself, and she was eager to introduce some artwork in musical form. Nakama Records was the first thought that came up to her mind. In episode 71 she presented four Nakama Records albums: Hungry Ghosts, New Rituals, Grand Line, and 3 Pianos.
Nakama Records was founded in 2015 as an extension of the band Nakama which came of age at the same time. The label primarily releases projects in which at least one of Nakama’s musicians are involved, either as a leader or a sidekick. The red thread is thus Nakama itself and our individual tastes, preferences and personal expressions. The term nakama is Japanese and in Japanese writing written like: 仲間. The word itself can be translated into «peer» or «comrade», and sums up the philosophy of a record label with respect for each member’s musical agenda, but with a common goal to feed the world with new music.
