Weston Flippo presents "Rei"



Weston Flippo, who is the singer for the raucous Japanese Women, has created a most excellent mixtape, "Rei" which plays out like an intensely emotional soundtrack ... it's full of twists, turns and unexpected surprises ...

" I made this for a friend but never got around to mailing to him. The mix is based on my desire for it to be fall and winter in alabama, how the death of fictional characters affect the mind of non fictional people and my interest in the character of Rei from neon genesis evangelion.
