Last Japan "Roughed Up"

• Words: Brandon O'Connor
• Label: Space + Time

UK-based newcomer Last Japan (a.k.a. Marco Giuliani) just sent over a free download of his most recent undertaking, "Roughed Up," which has been bobbing around the internet since December. The light-hearted, chirping synth of the track winds skyward until it drops into a crunchy bassline and fades out altogether—only to wind back up and repeat itself for a second dose of mind-numbing, catchy beatwork. You can also check out the visual accompaniment for the rounded bass tones and industrial-leaning grooves of Last Japan's single after the jump.
