Musilogue releases a new album by a percussionist Yosuke Watanabe. Together with five musicians, he has created this album full of tension and atmosphere, with an emphasis on improvisation.
With the exception of the percussion solo on the first track, every track is a duo performance between Watanabe and the musicians, which highlights the individuality of each player.
A succession of genre-less waves of sound, including ethnic collaborations with players familiar with traditional music such as the fiddle (Ireland), gadulka (Bulgaria) and kokyu (Japan), and sessions with violin and guitar using effects pedals in contemporary style.
Watanabe's evolving hybrid set of drums and percussions freely performances between static and dynamic in this ultra distinctive work.
