Review by Gesulla Cavanaugh

Nagoya 2006 is a collaborative album by Campbell Kneale, Antony Milton, and Kuwayama Kiyoharu. The album showcases a unique blend of experimental music, incorporating elements of drone, noise, and ambient music. The tracks are characterized by their atmospheric soundscapes, with layers of textures and tones creating an immersive listening experience.

The album opens with "Nagoya 1," a haunting track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The use of distorted sounds and feedback creates a sense of unease, while the repeating patterns provide a hypnotic quality. "Nagoya 2" is a more subdued track, with a focus on subtle textures and nuanced shifts in sound. The use of field recordings adds an organic element to the track, creating a sense of place and atmosphere.

The album continues to explore different sonic territories, with each track offering a unique perspective on the collaborative process. "Nagoya 3" is a particularly standout track, with its use of pulsating rhythms and distorted guitar creating a sense of urgency and tension. The album closes with "Nagoya 4," a meditative track that brings the album full circle, with its use of repeating patterns and atmospheric textures.

Notes

  • Previously unreleased recording of an epic drone recording made in Nagoya, Japan during the Birchville Cat Motel and A.M tour of 2006. Kiyoharu Kuwayama (Lethe) had been kind enough to organise us a show and then suggested that we hire a studio the next day to do some recording.
  • As I recall there was very little pre-amble, we arrived, set up quickly and launched straight into it. Kuwayama has done some minor editing but this record is pretty much the improvisation as it happened. Kuwuyama played bowed guitar and cello, Campbell played electronic bagpipes and ebowed strings, I played violin, live-captured tape loops and SK1. We all had contact mics and a selection of pedals.
  • Lathe cut is almost the perfect format for this release, the surface noise fits right in with the ghostly otherworldliness of the hiss, crackle and droning hums of the actual recording. Its a beautiful thing and effectively captures where the 3 of us were at with our music in 2006. I'd assumed these recordings long lost but am glad they weren't.
