Damon & Naomi — More Sad Hits
CD and LP Remastered Edition with new liner notes by D&N coming soon!
Damon & Naomi’s debut was produced by Kramer in 1992, and is closest in chronology and spirit to their work with Galaxie 500.

“Like real water in a world of soda pop.” — Robert Wyatt

“One of the Twenty Most Overlooked Psychedelic Albums” — Harp
“An album of stark, frail beauty.” — Q
“A tour de force of lush romanticism"
deliciously melancholic.” — SF Bay Guardian
“More ephemeral and fragile than even the most translucent of Galaxie moments.” — CMJ
“Possesses more pathos per note than just about anything in the record store bins.”— Alternative Press
“More extravagantly beautiful than it has any right to be.” — Melody Maker
“Maudlin and intelligent.” — Wire

Michio Kurihara — Sunset Notes
CD — $10.98
Solo record by the Gibson SG maestro, Kurihara.

"...the mostly instrumental album explores a myriad of directions, with crisp production and a clear and focused guitar sound presenting Kurihara's own take on progressive, surf, spaghetti-western, blues and more. With such diverse moods and subtly nuanced performances, in some ways Sunset Notes comes across more like a film soundtrack than a rock album, and as a result, it is a cinematic, emotional journey. The guitarist casually echoes such diverse six-string icons such as Thurston Moore, Dick Dale and Loren Mazzacane Connors without ever sacrificing his own taste and individualism." — Other Music

International Sad Hits, Volume One: Altaic Language Group
Fikret Kizilok (Turkey) / Kim Doo Soo (Korea) / Tomokawa Kazuki (Japan) / Mikami Kan (Japan)
CD — $12.98
A compilation by Damon & Naomi of singer-songwriters they admire from Turkey, Korea, and Japan. Includes a 20-page full-color booklet with biographical notes on each artist and translations of all song lyrics into English.

"A hugely enjoyable historical document, this disc shows us an area of music most of us will know only little about and stands up as one of the finest collections we’ve heard in a long while. Grab yourself a box of Kleenex, turn the lights down low and listen to your heart’s discontent – just remember to stay well away from the Jack Daniels. One of the most unique and inspired releases of the year - a massive recommendation." — Boomkat.com

CD — $10.98

A Two-Disc Set: CD & DVD — $12.00
Live CD recorded in San Sebastian, Spain, in 2001; packaged with a 54-minute video tour diary by Naomi on DVD.

"Each song is varnished with the glistening warmth that is often felt during a particularly special live performance,
making Song to the Siren pleasingly distinct from Damon & Naomi's studio recordings." — The Wire

Damon & Naomi with Ghost
CD — $10.00
D & N's 2000 studio collaboration with the Japanese band, Ghost, was released to acclaim by fans of both bands.

"By turns breathtakingly radiant and heartbreakingly melancholy, Damon and Naomi With Ghost finds these kindred spirits joining forces to make the most transcendent music of their respective careers; the two units' celestial acid folk sensibilities dovetail perfectly, illuminating their shared marriage of intensity and serenity to mesmerizing effect."
— All Music Guide

Damon & Naomi — Playback Singers
CD — $10.00
Damon & Naomi produced their third album in 1998, alone in their home studio — a personal, almost private recording, emotional and spare.

“[They] sound like Kafka, Kafka père and Josef K. in drag, pulling a rowboat slowly and quietly through chartreuse reeds in the gray dawn.” — Stephin Merritt, Time Out NY
“Playback Singers… comes from the soft side of the Velvet Underground, from the hushed folk of the late Nick Drake. Soft, sad, gently stirring.” — Boston Globe


The Wondrous World of Damon & Naomi
CD — $10.00
Produced by Kramer in 1995, Damon & Naomi’s second album features acoustic guitars and harmony vocals, a fusion of sad folk and dreamy pop.

“The Wondrous World, a work of darkly organic textures, will easily establish itself as a timeless collection of well-formed melancholy.” — Alternative Press
“A textured, smoothly weird collection of wistful, orchestral, eerie pop songs that linger in the ear like sweet nothings.” — CMJ
