Album Notes & Community Reviews

An exercise in extreme subtlety and restraint, this live collaboration pairs Akiyama's sparse, brittle acoustic guitar plucks with Nakamura's high-frequency, no-input mixing board feedback. The highly abstract 'onkyo' performance creates a deeply meditative, piercing, and almost entirely silent listening experience.
