World's End Girlfriend is a Japanese composer whose work blends complex sound structures with beautiful melodies, reaching from electronic glitch to jazz-infused rock to modern classical. Captivating, enthralling and like nothing you’ve heard before, WEG makes for a surprising yet central addition to London contemporary music label Erased Tapes. His brand new album ‘SEVEN IDIOTS’ will finally be released outside of Japan this April. Shifting seamlessly from catchy pop hooks to elaborate orchestrations and brutal IDM drones, it's an irregular pop album – filled with twists and turns that will have you reaching for the repeat button. At first recorded with vocals, he took the unusual composing method of building up the songs before erasing all of their vocal parts. By dismantling and re-constructing each track, WEG has produced a genre-defying album that truly transcends categorisation. World's End Girlfriend hails from Nagasaki Kyushu, Japan and currently resides in Tokyo. Fascinated by his father's classical music collection, he began his foray into sound at the tender age of 10, creating his early compositions on keyboard, guitar, tape recorders and computers. To date he has composed more than 600 songs, for the most part unreleased testaments of his early experimentations. World's End Girlfriend——世纪末日女朋友，从十岁开始，沉醉於父亲的古典音乐收藏，12岁开始试著用吉他，钢琴，录音机开始作曲，到发行专辑之前，已经累积六百首以上的曲子。首张专辑「Ending Story」(2000)静谧、耽美而梦幻，听起来很有冰岛乐队mum的感觉，而WEG的吉他与弦乐，情感更为浓烈。第二张专辑「Farewell Kingdom」(2001)仍贴近电子音乐， hip hop节奏与拼贴、可爱Nintendo电玩旋律，最大的特色是弦乐与钢琴。近来，受到加拿大后摇滚乐队Godspeed You Black Emperor!影响的成分加深，编制更为壮丽。
