The label supports a partnership with independent artists that allows them to focus on the creative aspects of music-making. Recent releases include albums by FEN, Pupa, The Observatory, and Acid Mothers Temple & the Melting Paraiso U.F.O. Ujikaji also co-presents the acclaimed BlackKaji series of experimental sound events, with the last show being a one-night takeover of the Kampong Bugis site of the Asian Film Archive’s contemporary art show, State of Motion.
