The Retail Sectors Reviews

The Retail Sectors “Foregone Conclusion” – Textura

February 15th, 2008

Excerpt: “Using guitars, bass, drums and electronics, Togawa ever-so-carefully builds his tracks into exquisite instrumental settings where guitars sometimes delicately chime and at other times swarm into buzzing masses… For listeners new to the group it’s as good a place as any to start. Opening the set strongly, ‘The First Step to End the Life’ becomes an irresistibly jubilant romp in remixer Si Begg’s hands… no one will come away thinking the group is only about elegant quietude.”

The Retail Sectors “Foregone Conclusion” – Luna Kafe

January 23rd, 2008

Excerpt: “The Retail Sectors (AKA Kentaro Togawa) took me pleasantly by surprise with the “The First Step to End the Life” single. Electronica pop, catchy like hell… The layers of sound on some of the tracks (the remix parts) are dizzying and yet chilling. The soundscapes of The Retail Sectors’ instrumental music are simple, yet complex… an exciting mini album.”
