The Air Is Unable

https://kazucci.bandcamp.com/

現在も終結していない（2022年5月時点）悪夢的侵攻に触発され、衝動的に1週間で制作した作品。狂ったギター以外の環境音は、悪夢の国の音を何処かからか拾い集め、分解し溶解し繋ぎ合わせた音。聴くものを選ぶ邪悪なダーク・アンビエント、ドゥーム、ノイズ・サウンドです。
今回「隠」と「陽」両極端のアルバム2枚同時にリリース。こちらは「隠」のアルバム。アートワークも自身による。100枚限定盤。

Inspired by a nightmare invasion that hasn't ended yet (as of May 2022), this work was impulsively produced in a week. Environmental sounds other than the crazy guitar are sounds that collect, decompose, dissolve, and connect the sounds of the evil country from somewhere. Evil dark ambient, doom and noise sounds. Two extreme albums, "dark" and "light", were released at the same time.
This is a "dark" album. The artwork is also by myself. Limited to 100 copies.

The Sound Of Nightmare (2022) (excerpt)

[ 観音響 Kannonkyō ]
宮城県仙台市にある通称『仙台大観音』は100mの高さで、内部には100以上の仏像が安置。エレベーターで一番上まで上り螺旋状の階段をゆっくり降りながら録音。足音と数人の来訪者の声が独特の音へ変化し響き渡ります。静かな感情のピアノとゆったりとしたストリングス、おりん、回転する石、転がる物音、ループする物音。観音様の胎内を歩きながら沸いてきたイメージを音像化。ちなみにジャケットの写真と、付属で付いている写真三枚は全て叔母です。

Located in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture, the so-called "Sendai Daikannon" is 100 meters high and has over 100 Buddha statues enshrined inside. I took the elevator to the top and slowly descended the spiral staircase while recording. The image that came to me while walking in Kannon's womb was created into a sound image. Footsteps and the voices of several visitors transform into a unique sound that echoes. A quiet emotional piano, relaxing strings, orin, rotating stones, rolling sounds, and looping noises. By the way, the jacket photo and the three accompanying photos are all photos of my aunt.

[ 千畳敷 Senjōjiki ]
青森県西部にある海岸『千畳敷』。青森の土地柄もあり寂しげで風が強い名所です。風が強い夜明け前に録音。不穏なピアノ、低く漂うストリングス、風の強弱、古書を捲る音、カラスの鳴き声、鈴の音、レコード・ノイズ、ループする物音、念仏唄（私の地元だけの風習で、死者を成仏させるために歌う唄）。この世とあの世の間（はざま）を表現した音の風景。

"Senjojiki" is a rugged coast located in the western part of Aomori Prefecture. Due to the nature of Aomori, it is a lonely and windy famous place. Recorded before dawn when the wind was strong. An ominous piano, strings drifting low and thin, the strength of the wind, the sound of flipping through old books, crows chirping, bells chiming, record noise, and looping noises, nembutsu song (A song that is sung to bring the dead to Buddhahood, a custom only found in my area). Soundscape that expresses the space between this world and the next world.

The artwork is also by myself. Limited to 100 copies.

菩提子 Bodaishi (2024) (excerpt)

« Usine » est un morceau de musique concrète basé sur des polyrythmies, nous plongeant dans un climat d’épouvante, d’angoisse, telle la bande son d’une scène de film d’horreur. Influencé par Steve Reich ou Jonny Greenwood (Bodysong)...

Ce Qu'entendent Les Grenouilles

Small studie of concrete music based on radio recordings and some manipulations with it.

Radio Studie (2024)

Conjunction

Variations for Wreckords is the culmination of three years of work and experimentation within the Electronic Music department at Bard College. The music is built from the physical deconstruction and reconstruction of vinyl records, juxtaposed together to create a new piece of music unique from the original material. The album is a 40-minute LP consisting of four tracks titled Variation 1-4 as each song is an exploration into a unique sonic world, overwhelmed by countless sources of music being cut and pasted into a new unrecognizable composition.

The Great Cataclysm

Tsk Tsk - A Musique Concrète Étude

Tsk tsk. A clicking sound, often read as /ˈtɪskˌtɪsk/ interjection — used to show disapproval often in a humorous way. Accessed October 11, 2024, Britannica Dictionary.

The work is a satirical meditation and reflection on life, and how people all around us sometimes take offence so easily and quickly - tsk tsk-ing here there everywhere… when we should learn to tune out the noise and not miss out on the beautiful things that are around us if we learn to listen more carefully. As per my modus operandi, a cool “easter egg” can be found in this composition. Hope you will have an Amazing time finding this Grace-ful insert.


Process
I was always fascinated by the sounds that one could draw from normal instruments via extended techniques. I’ve wondered why so many orchestration and composition textbooks do not seem to think of, or talk about the human voice and body as an instrument, let alone cover possible ‘extended techniques’ that the voice is capable of. Au contraire, the human body deserves a far longer chapter than any man-made instrument - in the hands (pardon the pun) of a creative mind, and in view of the sophisticated state of artificial amplification of sound today, the human body is capable of contributing a palette of colours and sounds that might be more interesting and wide-ranging than a violin or an oboe!

I explored numerous possibilities that included extended vocal techniques and timbres ranging from overtone singing, vocal fry, modal voice, falsetto, to the tapping of the body in unusual places, vocal percussion etc. Experimentation with conventional microphone distances, as well as extremely close microphone distances due to the nature of sounds that I wished to collect (teeth tapping was especially challenging). Despite having collected over 20 unprocessed sounds, the final mixing and assembly of the étude saw a major “composing with an eraser”, using 4 objet sonore and employing the full gamut of processing techniques on both the processed sounds and the final étude: 

Cut, copy, and paste
Fade in/Fade out
Waveform reverse
Tape speed variation (affecting pitch and duration simultaneously)
Amplification
Multitrack sound layering
Stereo panning (L/R balance and spatialisation)
