Alfredo Costa Monteiro, Ruth Barberán, Ferran Fages, Mahasiko Okura, Masafumi Ezaki, Taku Unami : Atami
Released by Taku Unami´s label Hibari, “atami” finds three great European musicians (Alfredo Costa Monteiro; Ruth Barberan; Ferran Fages) with strong roots on electroacoustic improvisation meeting with three Japanese musicians (Masahiko Okura;Masafumi Ezaki; Taku Unami), connected with the Onkyo movement, which is the same to say it’s an really organic mix between two worlds.
Each of the players has an atypical exploration of their instruments, focusing a lot more on the texture and shape of sound.
It’s a dialogue about silence: a suggestion of space, of the possibilities of a blank page. Tiny sculptures of sound being stolen from silence: you can feel each movement of the players, each intention with rather odd detail. All the action occurs in a kind of micro-cosmos, with each molecule being amplified to a new level, creating new forms that weren’t prominent at a first look.
Great stuff. Check out.
Personnel: Alfred Costa Monteiro( accordion) ; Ruth Barberan ( trumpet); Ferran Fages ( feedback mixing board + pickups); Masahiko Okura ( alto sax, bass tube); Masafumi Ezaki (trumpet); Taku Unami (lapsteel, laptop)
