about

Andrei Rikichi - "Caged Birds Think Flying Is A Sickness" (BS056)

This is Class! A dazzling, startling and discombobulating album from Andrei Rikichi via the wonderful Bearsuit Records. You will probably not hear anything like this anywhere else
[Sun & Violence]

An album that takes electronica, dance and cinematic sculptures to a new and experimental place. Yes, indeed once again Bearsuit Records have released an album crammed with original thought-provoking music that is both experimental but also very listenable
[Monolith Cocktail]

Great music as usual!
[Aural Delights]

Classer Caged Birds Think Flying Is A Sickness est impossible, de par ses changements constants et son éclectisme foisonnant, le tout guidé par une même impulsion, offrant à l’ensemble une conituinité absorbante. Disque habillé de liberté et de magnificence, où le grandiloquent se fait éclatant, où la beauté s’habille de noirceur, où la musique reflète la complexité de l’Homme. Sublime.
[Silence & Sound]

A great experimental work. Leaves you feeling addled and in a spin. It’s uncanny because it’s familiar, but it isn’t, as the different elements and layers intersect. It’s the sonic representation of the way in which life and perception differ as they collide
[Aural Aggravation]

“Death Of A Postmaster” comes across as a cosmic triumph of the highest standard, and “This Is Where It Ends” lands on a tightly buzzing, bombastic ‘n’ exotic finale that a lot of art-rock bands would kill for.
[DMME.net]

The music ranges from bombastic explosions in sound to sublime melody filled alternative electro pop, often on the same song. There’s ethereal voices hidden under industrial, repetitive, drone. There’s ghostly, operatic vocal solos. And then there’s the sultry, fuggy ambient soundscapes, coloured liked a nuclear Autumn, hazy and dreamlike, a treat for the headphones listener
[I Heart Noise]

This is a great album!
[The Transmitter Down]

Whilst sliding down the slippery, blood-soaked slope of the horror show ‘They Don’t See The Maelstrom’, you’ll appreciate Rikichi’s command of the studio and all its inherent madness and tricks, like a mad scientist version of Carl Stalling in a candy shop full of 21st century technological wonders. And ‘Death Of A Postmaster’ is one of the most beautifully sombre pieces of funeral music you’ll hear this year
[It's Psychedelic Baby Magazine]

Excellent new album from Andrei Rikichi. Unique crossover music from Bearsuit Records. A wonderful label producing wonderful music...
[World of Jazz]

Rikichi is on an abstract pop mission. Mixing soundscapes and songs elegantly
[Vital Weekly]

It’s disjointed, weird, confusing, sometimes harsh, occasionally melodic, and it makes me happy that there are still companies out there like Bearsuit pushing the boundaries of how we define what music is...
[Set The Tape]

A dark journey through an unsettling landscape in this atmospheric and occasionally experimental sound journey. An entertaining journey!
[The Rotting Zombie]
