Comment: this
bunch of 53 minutes is an old recording from a Butoh theatre
(Japanese dance theatre) in Sankt Peterburg, Russia taped in 2008.
Undoubtedly it is an intriguing, adventorous issue though the very
first minutes of it are needed to get into the point of it. In fact,
what is the core and intention of this issue? How much the volume
knob should be cranked up? Actually there are hidden many points into
it to be found out by the listener. First of all, one can hear
iterative patterns coming over your head in an enchanting way. It
embarks on with a pattern of the repetitive ringing of church bells
by representing it in a way to connect the mundane and heavenly
aspect. There is up glitched-out debris, there are represented sounds
reminding of the scrapes of metal, sometimes you can hear fascinating
drones and murmuring and hectic short wave radios and mind-altering spoken words (in
Finnish) which started to live their own life which later will be
replaced stepwise by autumnal, a bit caliginous drone ambient and then in turn by splashing watery sounds and spatial female
singing. However, the pace of the album continues to be the same –
hypnotically iterative. The more you listen to it the more this
magnificent world by Gosha Solntsev (a part of the art combo Noises
Of Russia) opens up inside your spiritual and mental cerebral centre.
The great issue is a part of the discography of Drill Records, and
Haze Records (unfortunately I could not find out the link of the
latter one anymore).
