DAVID BEHRMAN / Leapday Night (CD盤)
アメリカ実験音楽家のレジェンドDAVID BERHMAN(デヴィッド・バーマン)が、小杉武久やNYの前衛ギタリストRHYS CHATHAM(リース・チャタム)、BEN NEILL(ベン・ニール)等と共に録音した、竜宮城にいるような気分になってくる1987年オリジナル・リリースのマジカルな電子音響名作2ndアルバム!!! 鎮静作用のあるチル/アンビエント系としても大推薦の内容! 一家に一枚常備です。 David Behrman, electronics; Takehisa Kosugi, violin; Ben Neill and Rhys Chatham, trumpets A series of three pieces/suites; 'Leapday Night', 'A Traveler's Dream Journal', and 'Interspecies Smalltalk' involving Rhys Chatham/Ben Neill (on trumpet/mutantrumpet), Fluxus mainstay Takehisa Kosugi (violin), and Behrman himself on electronics. Behrman creates thickly layered liquid sounds utilizing this complex computer music system which absorbs, actually hears, the sounds of instrumentalists, then plays off their improvisations with its own synthesized reactions. The system consists of pitch sensors ("ears" with which it listens to the performing musicians), various music synthesizers (some homemade), a computer graphics color video display and a personal computer. "Heavy period-synth float with bare accompaniment, thankfully just-pre DX-7." (Lovely Music) 1. Leapday Night, Scene 1 (6:30) 2. Leapday Night, Scene 2 (6:36) 3. Leapday Night, Scene 3 (8:38) 4.
