mü-nest x PLOP special collaboration series vol. 3: "Sonorité" by Teruyuki Nobuchika.

“Sonorite” is the talented Kyoto-based film composer Teruyuki Nobuchika's latest work – his long-awaited 2nd solo album after the critically acclaimed debut album “Morceau” (Schole label, 2009). Having composed so many cinematic scores for films and television drama series, Nobuchika decided to adopt a fresh approach in his 2nd solo album – to explore the possibilities of the piano. Using piano as the only instrument, Nobuchika beautifully crafted his signature melodies and sounds that magically transformed the moments of everyday life into scenes as if there were taken from a movie – they are simple, but yet rich, beautiful and undoubtedly breathtaking.

“Sonorite” is a classical and yet contemporary piano suite by Nobuchika that will surely makes one tremble with delicate emotion. Its subtle emotional sounds closely resembling wonderful works by peer pianist like Goldmund, Johann Johannsson, Hauschka, and Akira Kosemura, This long awaited original production is the 3rd co-release from mü-nest (Malaysia) and PLOP (Japan), following the wonderful albums from me:mo and Kyo Ichinose.

blue träsk

Why did I have to struggle so much with the everyday traces of you?
If it were me now, could I have embraced you?
Have I changed, or have I stayed the same?
To accept a being is to step beyond understanding —
Beyond logic, beyond interests, beyond the rules of the world we know,
Into the unseen force that moves a world we cannot comprehend.
I remember your eyes, always gazing at me quietly, filled with love.
An unforgivable wrongdoing.
I know I can never be forgiven.
But surrendering to despair would be a coward’s choice.
The only way I can atone for you, even a little,
Is to live another day,
Smiling once more,
Even as I carry this unhealed sorrow,
Knowing I will never be forgiven.
I’m so sorry, Kai.

"ethereal froth scudding across the sky
the sunset cleanses today, leaving it glowing
shining water, silent waves"

aspidistrafly is a Singapore-based unit comprising of April Lee (vocal, programming) and Ricks Ang (guitar, programming). Since 2006, their participations in media art installations &amp; performances have gained attention for their sound and visual works. aspidistrafly have been regarded as one of the new wave of artists to emerge from Asia other than from Japan.

"i hold a wish for you" is their anticipated first full album. Drawing references to Banana Yoshimoto's literary classic "Moonlight Shadow", aspidistrafly weaves through the solitary atmosphere of the novel with their own narratives inspired by several excursions outside the confines of their immediate surroundings.  This latest release invokes delicate moments with nine tracks that combine acoustic instrumentation across April's warm vocal harmonies, soft floating textures and binaural field recordings. "i hold a wish for you" is an invitation to travel with sound through lyrical melodies and pastoral sonic scapes.

'Refined and robust, these well organized aural assemblages give ample animation and seriousness to the light and prosaic elements of the everyday' – Cyclic Defrost (Australia)

'Lovely collection on both sonic and visual grounds. aspidistrafly's transporting music glistens like sunlight passing through a spider web on a damp summer morning. Listeners whose taste runs from Sawako to Akira Kosemura will do themselves a grave disservice if i hold a wish for you doesn't immediately become a part of their collections' – Textura (Canada)

'With an eye for details like Taylor Deupree, it's in the vain of the Japanese musician Piana. "i hold a wish for you" is an overall a nice album which with the amazing artwork becomes something not to miss out on.' (8/10) – EARLabs (Netherlands)

'it feels like a soundtrack of sorts to the wonderful literary universe of Murakami in a sense – both present and down-to-earth, unassuming and kind, yet also retaining some mysterious, delicate qualities to distinguish aspidistrafly’s music from their peers' – Soundscaping (Norway)

'Its not easy to pin down aspidistrafly’s music into a specific genre, which of course is a good thing. Can you imagine Richard Chartier playing dreamy pop music? With some female vocalist? Well, there you go. I’d say aspidistrafly is microsound and pop.' – Vital Weekly (Netherlands)

'music like this would get assigned mawkish adjectives such as “ethereal”, “dreamy” and every other word used to describe a dimension beyond this one—except that in aspidistrafly’s case, the dimension is very much Planet Earth, and its lifeblood is the fountain of human imagination that refreshes all who draw from it.' - Junk Magazine (Malaysia)
