World’s End Girlfriend - Air Doll (空気人形)

World’s End Girlfriend (ワールズ・エンド・ガールフレンド) is Katsuhiko Maeda, a musical genius from Nagasaki but based in Tokyo, Japan. His music cannot be placed in one genre since it is a fusion of electronica, post-rock, ambient and experimental. Really unique style! This is his latest album, a soundtrack he wrote for the 2009 Japanese film "Air Doll" (空気人形), directed by Hirokazu Koreeda. I haven't seen the film, but the music is simply stunning! A must!
