Sound that stops the moment and makes you wonder
about new album ' Fragrance of Notes '
.......Their new album 『Fragrance of Notes was released this summer after five years, the album is made with artists Tsutomu Kurihara (drums), Takeo Toyama (piano) and also Gak Sato (Theremin) who worked at Right Tempo for more than 10years, and also Yuichi Inobori (flute/trombone) as guest players.
The 14tracks or should I say 14piece of poems are like a picture scroll which will bring back some old and sweet memories. It reminded me a film the romantic three piece made by movie director Seijun Suzuki, this album is a masterpiece.
The sexy and beautiful sound of accordion will cross by to the cool contrabass as if it is trying to seduce and other instruments were smiling to hear that eroticism in that sound and fit in as well.Inner ecstasy comes out from that crossing and continues to stay regardless of time.
This album will become a sound track for me as we toward to autumn.
