Description

Otomo Yoshihide and Hirose Junji: “Silanganan Ingay” (Tanga Tanga R-001) (Record: Mint/ Jacket: Mint). If you are looking for a truly obscure and rare record, well here you have one and I bet you have never seen this one before. This was actually Otomo Yoshihide’s first ever record, released in tiny quantities in 1989 on the private Tanga Tanga label. Undoubtedly it was his sole and best recorded disc till this date. I am no fan of his music, but this disc is truly stunningly and jaw dropping great. Otomo deploys here turntables with hand-made mixer, cassette tapes, hand made guitar, various small instruments and toys. Hirose Junji on the other hand completes the musical sonic palette with self made instruments, toy-rhythm box, toy-voice changer, auto-harp and tenor sax. The music balances on the verge of free improvisation, sheer noise, accidental music, tape collage and musique concrete. The two performers interact in a perfect way with each other, responding to each other’s individual moves and rip through various sonic universes in a mind chattering way. At times, Otomo’s tape insertions and collages depict recognizable bits and pieces of all time classic recordings, before getting demolished and raped by Hirose, at which Otomo in return responds with mush vehemently tonal color. This is undoubtedly to sole great disc he ever made and since it release in 1989 it vanished into oblivion, forgotten by the rest of the world. Until now, so here you have a chance to lay your hands upon this sonic gem. Over the top super, recommended for lovers of improvised music, musique concrete, free jazz, musique brut and adventurous sounds. Very rare to say the least and I doubt that another copy will cross your path within the next decade
