Album Notes & Community Reviews
The legendary Japanese experimentalist reconvenes his large ensemble for an exceptionally complex, avant-garde jazz exploration. The recording brilliantly bridges the gap between chaotic free jazz improvisation and delicate electroacoustic textures, incorporating elements of Onkyo minimalism and surreal sound collage.
