Reviews:
KENJI SIRATORI - FUTURE FREEDOM (CDR by Ambolthue Records)
Also a review of Bonemachine - Right Now!
I reviewed a collaboration of Kenji Siratori sometime back (Vital
Weekly 594) in which he utilized his rather fierce voice against
Federico Barabino's gentle guitar work but this CDr is nothing
like - has two tracks of pure noise (yes i'm happy) - the first
track could be using, field recordings, as could the second with
sufficient morphing from the various effects, both tracks are
walls of noise - clatter and shards of sound - perhaps cracking
ice and worn machinery tearing itself apart Bone Machine has a
sustained rhythm throughout its industrial reverberated wash of
industrial clanking, annoying like the alarm that continually
sounds at the atomic plant at windscale - now renamed sellafields
- well change the name and the radioactivity might go away, anyway
as long as you hear the alarm everything is OK - when it stops
you,re dead, this then might be a release celebrating the infamous
event 50 years ago in the reactor which was being used to make
Britain's A Bomb - (hooray! And God save the Queen!) 'On the morning
of Friday October 11 and at its peak, 11 tonnes of uranium were
ablaze.' Hummm - kept that quiet but I digress - that might have
helped my coming to terms with the piece - but this all too rhythmical
work with its cinema horror voice-overs is not convincing - with
the Kenji piece the alarm rhythm (of life) has stopped and we
are once more returning to the chaos of atomic particles from
whence we accidentally came - nice! (jliat)
