The late Japanese producer, DJ and composer Susumu Yokota is being celebrated with a posthumous release orchestrated by Jon Tye’s imprint Lo Recordings. Called Cloud Hidden, it features previously unreleased compositions as well as early versions of tracks from Yokota's 2002 album The Boy And The Tree. The music was found on a DAT tape by Mark Beazley, whose post rock group Rothko collaborated with Yokota on Waters Edge EP (also 2002).
Yokota died in 2015 after a long illness, aged 54.
