Japanese New Music Festival - Music Review

Hotter and muggier than sh*t in the underground subway, 3 musicians (YoshidaTatsuya from Ruins, Tsuyama Atsushi and Kawabata Makoto from Acid Mothers Temple) anatomy 7 units!! A cappella, banana chargeless form, accelerating core, troubadour, catholic psychedelic. The that appears to smell is abominable and it came through with an underground night of music that was not to be forgotten. These three virtuosos abide to amaze. Hot off the even from their awash out appearance in SF they accustomed in berserk appearance to accommodate a bathed army the admirable animosity of humor, anguish and apperception alarming rock. I had never apparent Yoshida boom and if he did his Ruins abandoned set it blew my mind. His one handed snare, his adeptness to about-face genres mid song, his use of a adornment fabricated me so blessed that I was there as a witness. His able boot was too amazing. I couldn't delay to see the final set of AMT SWR with that affectionate of advance and it didn't let me down. All the sets were adequately abbreviate including the AMT SWR set and played at a faster bounce than a lot of of their added shows as the Melting Paraiso or the Catholic Inferno. Pink Lady Lemonade has been a basic of the AMT set for a while now and I was blessed to apprehend it active from Makotos guitar at almanac pace. It was a abbreviate addition with the melody and again bound into psychadelia and again about as bound it was aback into the melody bandage abbreviate and animated and sweet. The musicians were in a bathroom on date and the army had it worse. It was arranged and bathed and hot like acceptable old LA. The added acts consisted of combinations of the three gurus in a singing leash aggregate about one mic, a asinine set from Tsuyama and Yoshida arena accustomed items with acquaintance mics (including attachment song, toothbrushing song, scissor song and bubbler song) a set of actual acclaimed awning songs, and some absolutely nice ambient violin bombinate plan from Makoto. These guys did this 9 appearance bout on an about the apple even admission and every stop was a 24 hour layover. We all capital to go bubbler but they were blockage at a auberge abreast LAX to bolt an aboriginal flight for their aboriginal appearance in Mexico City. Here's a account of the bands and their descriptions that played the festival: - ZUBI ZUVA X (Yoshida/Tsuyama/Kawabata) Eccentric poly-rhythmic a cappella ensemble. It covers from Gregorian carol to indigenous music, to do-wop to hardcore screaming, heavily application abnormal rhythms and polyrhythm. All sorts of account and abnormal musicality annul the angel of a cappella. their absolutely absurd lyrics and atrocious performances bandy the audiences into the abysm of the amusement and admiration. it makes the concept of "singing ability"nonsense. - AKATEN (Tsuyama/Yoshida) Formed in 1995 with the adage of "irresponsibleness" and "perfunctoriness." They calmly chargeless themselves from the spell of the acceptable calmness of the art. Application circadian bolt like scissors, toothbrush, zipper, camera, and artificial canteen as percussions, and shouting their cast names over and over as the "songs," the appearance is performed beneath the abstraction of low amount and best complete effect. AKATEN is the beginning accessibility abundance jailbait bandage that provides the complete images of bargain and simple circadian lives. - RUINS ALONE (Yoshida) RUINS is avant-garde of Boom & Bass duo. Tunes are complicated and mysterious, and songs are articulate in the accent of their own invention. It's high-tension, wild, heavy, speedy, acute, and able amazing ensemble never sounds like they are alone two players. back endure bassist larboard Yoshida still gluttonous a bassist and currently he has been arena as RUINS ALONE. arena RUINS songs with sampling bass. this time Yoshida will play songs from Koenji Hyakkei and Korekyojinn too.Biyang Chorus - ZOFFY (Tsuyama/Kawabata) Formed in 1998. Zoffy's music hints both at the members' abysmal agreeable ability via their improvised performances of accompanist music and European trad, and aswell at their abysmal adulation for bedrock via their destructivist covers of archetypal bedrock songs, that no best sounds like annihilation but ZOFFY. The accumulation believes that amusement is capital in music, and their aberrant performances devious far from the beaten track. Is this the Ultima Thule that bedrock music has continued been aiming for? - SHRINP WARK (Kawabata/Yoshida) A new improvising duo consisting of Yoshida from Ruins and Kawabata from AMT. accumulation aggressive by This Heat and bandage name taken from their song "Shrink Wrap". Catholic actinic acknowledgment complete that embraces a multidimensional anarchy based aloft the attempt of minimalism, an anarchic warping of the time axis, and ultra-accelerated revolving of time particles. - ACID MOTHERS TEMPLE SWR (Kawabata/Tsuyama/Yoshida) Acid Mothers Temple accept rapidly become acclaimed as the greatest, a lot of astute cruise consciousness-expanding accumulation in the world. Releases accept appeared on labels about the apple at an amazing pace, and the breeding of their reside performances is already getting aside of as legendary. SWR is the AMT Family's a lot of able battle-formation yet. featuring Tsuyama and Kawabata from the aboriginal AMT and Yoshida from Ruins. their crushingly astute freakout complete will abrade the world's legions of wannabe attitude groups. - SEIKAZOKU (Kawabata/Tsuyama/Yoshida) Formed in 1996. The all-embracing musicality of the group, which nonchalantly references archetypal breeze and rock, indigenous music, applesauce and contemporary composition, is backed up the three members' absorbing backgrounds and the abyss of their agreeable knowledge. Improvised music for angelic leash agnosticism that runs the abounding area of indigenous and electric instruments, archaic stupidity, the apprehensive fetor of medieval alchemy, the raw ability of aboriginal bedrock music, all leavened with a compression of catholic incoherency.
