Afterhours #18
Today I picked up this Japanese music magazine called Afterhours, in which I was so surprised to find a large Montréal indie scene special!
#18 comes with 3 CDs: a Montréal compilation (artists from the current scene), a Tomlab vs Audio Dregs, plus the magazine's regular compilation.
The price of 2400yen is a bit high for a magazine, but way worth it since it comes with 3 CDs.
I am so happy to see pictures and read interviews with my favorite Montréal record stores: Atom Heart, Esoterik, L'oblique...!
It's great that the scene is getting some exposure in Japan!
Now I gotta have a few good listens to that Montréal compilation to familiarize myself with all these artists I have no clue about, since the scene has evolved a lot since 3 years ago when I came to Japan.

Many of these bands have CDs available on the Web. I recommend checking the Montreal-based shop Atom Heart which sells on GEMM.
