日本の即興シーンを代表する演奏家として活躍してきた中村としまるのノーインプット・ミキシング・ボード(外部からのサウンドソースを用いない)と、NYのフィードバック装置〜モジュール・シンセの使い手David Lee Myersによる2023年リリース共演作。
Surface World is pleased to share David Lee Myers (aka Arcane Device) and Toshimaru Nakamura’s Elements, a remote collection written and assembled in tandem at the suggestion of the label. Sharing an idiosyncratic approach to feedback-based sound generation and a commitment to their signature instruments (respectively, the Feedback Machine and the No-Input Mixing Board), the pairing lands during an especially fruitful period in their individual discographies. Harmonically dense, energetic and colorfully unpredictable, Elements’ levity never compromises a hypnotic momentum and focus. We hope you enjoy.
