簡介。。。。。。
"Here is the evolved music with steelpan x electronics from Tokyo!!"
"Infinite Flowers" is the 3rd album of YOSHIO MACHIDA, a sound & visual artist, based in Tokyo. Developing a gong piece from his 2nd album,"Hypernatural #2 (2001, softl music)", this album was made using a sound system of steel pan + live electronics(Max/MSP). In a unique piece, "¡hana mambo!", humorous robot choir is singing with rhythm and it's creating an exotic atmosphere. The wonderful ecology, beauty and brightness of "flower" which is the theme of this album are expressed in electronics textures enough. Creating with Keiichi Sugimoto(guitar, ex. MINAMO, FONICA) and Tetsuro Yasunaga(electronics, ex. MINAMO, VOIMA) from cubic music which is leading Tokyo's new music scene, it became electro-acoustic ensemble with clear sounds.

我的碎碎唸。。。。。。推薦指數:7.6/10
就像這張CD的title“Infinite Flower”(無限的花朵),還有它非常漂亮的cd cover,Yoshio Machida(町田良夫)努力地用各種聲音描繪著花之印象:她的美麗,她的色彩,她的迷人香氣,她的自然氣質。町田良夫曾經遊歷過許多國家,並在世界各處田園風光中進行他的錄音實驗,而且親手創造了一種改良式的鋼鼓(steel pan)。這張專輯裏他就運用著這種“町田鋼鼓”,配上些live電音,創造著他追求的花香四溢、花瓣飛舞的田園意境。第二個track“!Hana Mombo!”在整張專輯中非常特別,唯一有演唱的一曲,卻將人聲處理得像機器人發出一般,讓人聯想起Kazumasa Hashimoto和他的“futuristic pop”,可愛、富有童趣。
去豆瓣上看看。。。。。。
