ALVA NOTO & RYUICHI SAKAMOTO : TWO (LIVE AT SYDNEY OPERA HOUSE) [Noton]
€50.00
Catalogue : Noton / N-046
Format : 2LP, Vinyl, Album
Condition : New
Country : Germany
Released : 2019
Genre : Ambient, Experimental, Drone
The hums and buzzes of Nicolai's Alva Noto project combine with the organic timbre and classical lilt of Sakamoto's work for a unique sound unlike anything in their individual catalogues. This new live album reflects on their work together, which encompasses four albums, a film soundtrack and a handful of other releases. The music is taken from one of their Two concerts, recorded at the Sydney Opera House, where they performed new, improvised bits alongside seven tracks from their catalogue, played in chronological order. This live album underlines the deeply intertwined nature of their collaboration, where the contrasting styles of two extraordinary musical personalities dovetail gracefully. The music touches on placid ambient, roaring drone and the kind of glitchy minimalism the duo are known for. The album's live feel comes out best during the improvised pieces, which are surprising in both their depth and irreverence.
