新作EP『Ancient / Future』が、東京・神宮前の @glocal_records にて販売中。

GLOCAL RECORDSは2011年に原宿でオープン。オーナーの箕輪弦太さん自身の言葉を借りれば、惹かれるのは「最新のダンスミュージックとワールドミュージックがぶつかる、その交差点」。ジャングル、ドラムンベース、ブレイクビーツ、テクノ、ハウスから、レゲエ、ワールド、ジャズまで、それぞれのジャンルのルーツを捉えながら、独自の視点で中古盤を中心にセレクトしている。 

「GLOCAL」という名前そのものが、グローバルとローカル、異なる場所から生まれた音が交わる店の姿勢を表している。

GLOCAL RECORDS
東京都渋谷区神宮前5-23-5

〒150-0001

New EP Ancient / Future is available now in Tokyo at @glocal_records.

GLOCAL RECORDS opened in Harajuku in 2011. In the words of owner Genta Minowa, what interests him is “where the latest dance music and world music collide. That intersection.” The store moves from jungle, drum & bass, breakbeats, techno and house to reggae, world music and jazz, with a selection focused primarily on second-hand records and an ear toward the roots of each genre. 

The name “GLOCAL” itself reflects the philosophy of the shop: a meeting point between global and local, and between sounds that have emerged from different places.

The Celestial Chariot (Pushpaka Vimana), northern India. c. 1650.

The painting depicts Rama, Sita and Lakshmana travelling from Lanka aboard the Pushpaka Vimana, the celestial flying palace described in the Ramayana.

In ancient Sanskrit literature, vimānas are celestial vehicles, chariots or flying palaces used by gods, supernatural beings, kings and heroes to travel through the heavens.

Across different texts and later artistic traditions, vimānas take many forms; chariots, palaces, temples and immense structures moving through the heavens, with some described as travelling according to the will or desire of their occupants.

They appear throughout Hindu epic and mythological traditions, including the Ramayana and Mahābhārata, the two great Sanskrit epics of ancient India. Both developed through centuries of oral and literary tradition, taking shape between approximately 500 BCE and 400 CE, while drawing upon stories and traditions whose origins may reach considerably further into the ancient past.

In these texts celestial vehicles appear alongside supernatural beings and epic battles are fought with weapons of extraordinary destructive power, in descriptions that can sound, to contemporary ears, uncannily technological.

《天上の戦車(プシュパカ・ヴィマーナ)》北インド、1650年頃。

この絵には、『ラーマーヤナ』に登場する天空を飛ぶ宮殿「プシュパカ・ヴィマーナ」に乗り、ランカーから旅するラーマ、シーター、ラクシュマナの姿が描かれている。

古代サンスクリット文学において、ヴィマーナとは、神々や超自然的な存在、王や英雄たちが天空を旅するために用いる、天上の乗り物、戦車、あるいは空飛ぶ宮殿として描かれている。

さまざまな文献や後世の美術表現の中で、ヴィマーナは戦車、宮殿、寺院、天空を移動する巨大な構造物など、多様な姿で表現されており、中には乗る者の意志や望みに従って移動すると記述されるものもある。

ヴィマーナは、古代インドを代表する二大サンスクリット叙事詩『ラーマーヤナ』と『マハーバーラタ』をはじめ、ヒンドゥー教の叙事詩や神話の伝統の中にたびたび登場する。両叙事詩は、何世紀にもわたる口承と文学の伝統を通じて発展し、およそ紀元前500年から紀元後400年にかけて形づくられていったと考えられているが、そこに語り継がれた物語や伝承の起源は、さらに遠い古代にまで遡る可能性がある。

これらの物語では、天上の乗り物が超自然的な存在とともに登場し、壮大な戦いでは驚異的な破壊力を持つ武器が用いられる。その描写は、現代の私たちの耳には、時に不思議なほどテクノロジーを思わせるものとして響く。

Better late than never, we’re incredibly excited to finally announce a very special upcoming release on our label.

One of the most rewarding aspects of music is its ability to create meaningful connections across borders and cultures. Through that shared language, we connected with @rush2theunknown , a Japan- and New Zealand-based duo with roots in the foundation New Zealand jungle / drum & bass scene, and it’s a true privilege to now be releasing their music.

Ancient / Future is a journey through time, influence, and emotion. Drawing from the duo’s diverse musical backgrounds and inspirations, the EP bridges ancient echoes with futuristic sound design, balancing antediluvian nostalgia and far-future energy in equal measure.

DJ pick-ups and support from the likes of @anzieanz ,@benjib , @courtesy707 , @djflight , @charlie_fracture , @itoamusic , @marylou.dj , @sinistarr_ and many more. 

AWK007, “Ancient / Future“ by rush2theUnknown will be released on Friday, July 3rd, 2026.

Much love, and we hope you enjoy the music!
