David Rotenburger Michael Weber returns to the scene with this tremendous work of synthwave art! I am loving these incredible tunes and the addition of some Italo disco into the mix. Glad to have you back, Mike........hope you keep making music for a long, long time!!! Favorite track: FUTOMAKI.

Michael L-D Quintessential 80s vibes - love it! Favorite track: TATAKI.

Ryan Cartlidge Great to see Mr Weber back again. As always, what makes Michael stand out from the rest of the synthwave community is his unique ability of evolving his music into something new and different while also at the same time being so recognisably him. This album is easily his best album yet and that in itself is a tall order. Well done Michael, can't wait to see what you do next! Favorite track: OMAKASE.

Lisa de Jong Michael Weber is back, baby! Absolutely fantastic album, from start to finish. Love the Japanese influences mixed in (& a dash of Italo) while still staying true to himself - the music sounds familiar, yet fresh. Great mixing & mastering as well, as you can expect from mr. Weber. Sounds wonderful & clear, it's impossible to sit still while listening to this one. Just close your eyes & imagine catching every bite that the chef is making for you & throwing your way. Sushiwave is now a thing! Favorite track: SHIBUI.

about

Back in 2020, I made a career change and pursued culinary. Last December of 2022, I switched restaurants and got the chance to become a sushi chef. I wrote this album over the past year as my journey as a sushi chef.

OMAKASE. What does this mean? Omakase is a Japanese word and it’s literal definition means “to be left up to you”. Usually this term is associated in sushi restaurants which offer an Omakase-style dinners where the sushi chef makes anywhere from 10-20 single bites for you to try. They tend to contain seasonal or locally acquired ingredients. It's considered one of the most luxurious offers in the culinary world to attend a high-end Omakase dinner.

I decided to concept and create a whole album around sushi and what i do for a living. Lots of repetition and back-and-forth beats to simulate what I experience when feeding customers on a daily basis at my sushi bar. I am constantly writing beats down when I get home. This album is literally the inside of my brain while being a sushi chef.

anyways, I present to you my 4th album release, Omakase.

Cheers,
Michael Weber
