“The beauty is the thing”
“Kanon : Aki Takase (piano, inside piano). Kazuhisa Uchihashi (guitar, effects and daxophone). Axel Dörner (trumpet). This trio’s musical inspirations give birth to an amazing, extraordinary, mind-boggling mandara of sound. It’s an extreme sound that could only be achieved by people engaged in the ultimate sonic and musical explorations. Surrender yourself to the joyful sounds coming out of the left and right speakers, and you’re sure to be taken on a natural high. It took confidence and pride for these three to come together as regular members and name their group Kanon. Once you hear their sound, you’ll see the light -guaranteed !”

SIM + OTOMO
“Monte alto estate”
“This is the collaborative masterpiece of the 3-piece unit, sim (Oshima Teruyuki on guitar and composition, Ootani Yoshio on computer, electronics, etc, and Uemura Masahiro on drums) and Otomo Yoshihide (turntables, self-made synthesizer). The noise of Otomo sharply incises the unique sound of sim, where Uemura’s controlled roaring drumming sets an main axis on Oshima’s precise rhythmical composition, Oshima’s the chord cuttings beats minimally and the electronics of Ootani give extreme voltage. Both of their mastering of some tunes procedure of which once made back into analogue and the exquisite jacket cover seem to simbolize this distinct sound.”

Jim SAUTER – Kid MILLIONS
“Boanerges”
Duo of Jim Sauter from Borbetomagus and Kid Millions from the Boadoms and Oneida ! The sound of saxophone turning into an extreme noise and brutal raging percussion! Such is the latest “NOISE JAZZ” from NYC! (JOJO Hiroshige / Hijokaidan). Jim’s sax playing is impulsively domineering in Borbetomagus, which is based on a usually percussion-less trio formation of two saxophones and one guitar; and I was really curious to hear what would happen when it encountered a drummer who is often described in terms of "stamina." Truly, the answer is in this album. --T. Mikawa ( Incapacitants, Hijokaidan ) from linernote
“...something struck me immediately, the slight slap-back delay on the sax, the SAX! Yes, of course it’s Jim Sauter, and a long long time since I had heard him with drums, but also, with a new rhythmical sense to his use of effects, not just altering the timbre, and the threshold, of his horn, but also changing the space it was in, the relation to a new space that Kid Millions drums propelled him into head forward”. -Jim O’Rourke, from linernote. obi text : Jojo Hiroshige (Hijokaidan), linernotes : T.Mikawa (Incapacitants, Hijokaidan), Jim O’Rouke in English and Japanese, digipack with 16 page booklet.

Keiki MIDORIKAWA
“Complete Grüne Revolution”
“Keiki Midorikaw (cello, bass), Masahiko Togashi (percussion, drums), Masayuki Takayanagi (guitar) et Masahiko Sato (piano). Recorded on January 16, 1976 at Nichi-futsu kaikan, Tokyo. The original LP of this work has duo with Takayanagi on A side and duo with Sato on B side. But in the concert, Midorikawa played duo with Togashi about 40 minutes, afterward he played duo with Takayanagi and with Sato both about 20 minutes actually. It didn’t include Togashi duo on the original LP. This time doubtmusic found a tape of Midorikawa - Togashi duo, 2CD set convey all performance that day as a complete version. The tapes which are used on those CDs are different from the original master tape, and we re-mastered them, so the quality is higher than the original LP. Midorikawa’s free improvisation that playing duo with each Togashi, Takayanagi, Sato is inventive and in consequence, each music is very beautiful. Those music are prime free-jazz that quietness and intensity seem like spindrift.”
