SANMI / When I found you

Improvisations combines algorythmic processes such as Fast Fourier Transformations and Pythagorean Harmony to produce music which has been described as 'very attractive chaos'. Sanmi accesses his subconscious, fusing the meditative and contemplative with the unpredictable and, at times, intense. 

Japan based experimentalist Kyo Yanagi describes his alter ego as 'an experimental unit since 1998'. He uses algorithmic and process based electronic composition techniques, creating textures which fluctuate from warm and delicate to visceral and abrasive.

Improvised by Tonkori 2019 Champion Tatsuro Araya and Fretless bass by SANMI. Based on mysterious and fantastic theory of origin of Japan is related with ancient Jewish culture. It says the first promised land Zion was Japan. They had disappeared from histroy after arrival....
Tonkori is traditional Ainu people's 5 strings harp. Ainu people is aboriginal Japanese based on polytheism. Hokkaido island is strongly remaining memories of Ainu as new colony of Japan. and also curiously traditional Japanese musical scale is familiar with middle east music scales. We hope to feel mysterious mood at the end point of SILK ROAD and the connection of human’s history and activities between east and west as neighbor's intimacy.
