UNKNOWN ME with NYANTORA - Time Practice (LIVE@nagoya Dec/25/2016)

2016年、元住吉POWERS2にて、勝井祐二そしてササキヒデアキのユニットDRAMATICS、ナスノミツルとササキヒデアキのユニットProto、そしてKoji nakamuraのソロNyantora、この三組による演奏が12/30日に行われた。この日の最後の演奏は、三組によるドローン。2016年に亡くなったTony Conrad追悼の意味もありつつの演奏であったが、2016年は多くの偉大な音楽家たちが旅立った年でもあったため、偶然であろうか、自然なことであろうか、より大きな意味の追悼を感じさせる演奏になった。記録としてこのsoundcloudにあげておきます。

unknown な誰かの心象風景を建築するアンビエント・ユニット 始動 ！

「ワーカホリックな慌ただしい平日をどうにかくぐり抜け、ようやくたどり着いた日曜日。のんびりとリラックスしながら気ままに休日を過ごす彼の心には、時間の経過とともにいつしか“void= 空虚感” が漂い始めていた…。」
近年再び盛り上がりを見せる“Ambient～NewAge～Tape カルチャー” をキーワードに、やけのはら•P-RUFF•H.TAKAHASHI の3人によって結成されたアンビエント•ユニット、UNKNOWN ME。1 作目となる今回、彼らがスポットを当てたのは“日曜日”。
まるで窓から差し込む日光のような、浮遊感のあるやわらかい音像と丸みを帯びたリズム。日が傾くにつれて、それらが重なり溶け合ってまどろみへと誘う。夜が深まり徐々に立ち現れる、スペイシーなトリップ感を帯びたアンビエンス。“誰も知らない誰か” の休日の過ごし方にフォーカスし、起床～就寝までの時間の移ろいを軸として展開する、ウォーミーでリラクシンな30 分。
DJ、ラッパー、トラックメイカー、執筆家として様々なシーンを縦横無尽に横断し独自の活動を続けるやけのはら。DJ 活動と並行してレーベルradloop を主宰、7inch 作品のリリースを重ねるP-RUFF。Entertainment Systems、Where To Now? Recordings 等、海外レーベルからもカセット作品をリリースするアンビエント作家H. TAKAHASHI 。
3 人がそれぞれ持つバックグラウンドや音の個性が絶妙に交わることで、奇跡的に生み出されたアンビエント•カセットが、やけのはらのレーベル“NOPPARA TAPES” のリリース第一弾として少量限定リリース！

UNKNOWN ME = Y (Yakenohara) + P (P-RUFF) + H (H. Takahashi)
Ambient unit building unknown someone's imagined landscape START!!

"He withstood workaholic weekdays, finally arrived Sunday. While he spends relax and take it easy, he feels void unawares.."

"Ambient~New Age~ TAPE culture" showed a climax in recent years, Yakenohara ? P-RUFF ? H. Takahashi set it as keyword, and start an ambient unit, "UNKNOWN ME".

For their first album, they shed a spotlight on Sundays.
Their floating and soft sound and rounded rhythm like sunlight coming through window.
These blend into each other as a day inclines, and invite you to slumber.
Night deepens, ambience with a feeling of trip appears little by little.
This album which focus on how someone spends a day off, express passage of time to going to bed from getting up, is warm and relaxing 30 minutes.

Yakenohara, he actives widely as DJ, rapper, track maker, and writer.
P-RUFF, he presides the label "ladloop" side by side DJ activity, and release 7 inch works.
H. Takahashi, he is an ambient artist who releases cassettes by world labels such as Entertainment systems, Where To Now? Recordings etc...

The 3 backgrounds and the personality of sounds are crossed exquisitely, the ambient cassette is in this way produced miraculously.
This time, Yakenohara's new label, "NOPPARA TAPES" release it in a limited quantity!

UNKNOWN ME - nature trail (AM 9:15) / Track 01 of 「sunday void」

The Aeolian Harp (also called Wind Harp) is a string instrument that is played by natural wind. It sounds like layered feedback or drones with rich harmonic textures that will change continuously according to the wind direction, strength and consistency. One day, I bought the materials at the local DIY store and built a small Aeolian Harp. I brought the harp outside on windy days, but it made no sound at all. Through trial and error, by altering the string materials, tension, and the angle against the wind, it finally produced a sound.

The harp resonates with the surrounding environment, changing from place to place. I put two lavalier microphones into each of its two holes to clearly record the tiny resonant sounds, without too much wind interference. What is intriguing to me is that the recording will inevitably include environmental sounds from near and far which are condensed and slightly modulated by the harp. In a way, I use the harp as a kind of transducer as well as sounding body to interact with the environment through the forces of the wind. The recordings themselves are ecological, meteorological and geomorphological observations at a certain time and place.
