CdV P049: Japanese ambient special
Escrito por Cabeza de Vaca el 04/09/2013
We start the first of a three part series on Japanese electronic music with a focus on ambient. We open with two tracks from a pair of the greatest ambient album of all time, starting with Tetsu Inoue’s “Ambient Otaku” which is frequently held up with Aphex Twin’s “Seleted Ambient Works” as an essential example of the genre. Buddhastick Transparent are much less known and their work is a lost masterpiece of spiritual chill out. Tokyo-based sound artist Yui Onodera forms the focus of the show as we highlight several of his pieces and the key concepts behind his work. Finally, we close with recent tracks from Sawako, newcomer Yuya Ota and Illuha.
CdV P049: Especial de ambient Japones
Empezamos la primera de una serie de tres partes sobre la música electrónica japonesa con un enfoque en ambient. Abrimos con dos pistas de un par de los más grandes álbumes ambiental de todos los tiempos, empezando por «Ambient Otaku» de Tetsu Inoue, que se celebra con frecuencia con «Selected Ambient Works» de Aphex Twin como un ejemplo fundamental del género. Buddhastick Transparent es mucho menos conocido y su trabajo es una obra maestra perdida de espiritual chill out. Artista de sonoro con sede en Tokio Yui Onodera constituye el foco del programa y destacamos varias de sus piezas y los conceptos claves detrás de su obra. Finalmente, cerramos con pistas recientes de Sawako, el recién llegado Yuya Ota y Illuha.
