_______________________________________________________________________
Tetuzi Akiyama's Terrifying Street Trees is the first number on
Esquilo's Instant Series documenting live recordings of
improvised music. Recorded in 2004 this set shows Akiyama on
freeform/freestyle mode applying his peculiar preparations and
artefacts (swords and etc) to the guitar with a lot of tonal
and harmonic modulation going on. It is a quite raw, and
ear-piercing at times, recording but always gratifying to the
listener.
This is Tetuzi Akiyama's first solo release on its freeform
approach to the electric guitar and it will surely stand as one
of his best. It is noisy and quiet, stinging and meditative,
bluesy and drony, and always surely focused. Beautiful tones,
overtones and arpeggios come out of the guitar via bowing,
scrapping and plucking with the characteristic tape-delayed
sound. At times it even sounds unlike a guitar resembling
gongs, horns and typically bowed instruments.
Terrifying Street Trees is part of Akiyama's campaign to
release oficial bootlegs of his past performances straight from
his personal archive.
The edition comes in a white heavy deluxe gatefold cardboard
sleeve with original silkscreened artwork by Japanese painter
Yoko Naito.
Limited to 110 copies.
Does it all goes back to the blues? Do check the special
edition of this release featuring a bonus disc with an early
live recording of the boogie set that would later become the
mythic, and now long out-of-print, Don't Forget to Boogie! LP,
and make your own decision.
Terrifying Street Trees - Special Edition features 2 discs.
The first disc is the same as in the normal edition and shows
Akiyama on freeform/freestyle mode applying his peculiar
preparations and artefacts (swords and etc) to the guitar with
a lot of tonal and harmonic modulation going on. It is a quite
raw, and ear-piercing at times, recording but always gratifying
to the listener.
The second disc presents a live performance recorded in Tokyo
where Akiyama plays an early version of the complete boogie set
that would later become the highly acclaimed and mythical, now
long out-of-print, Don't Forget to Boogie LP. It features 13
tracks as in a true smashing performance.
Terrifying Street Trees is part of Akiyama's campaign to
release official bootlegs of his past performances straight
from his personal archive.
The edition comes in a white heavy deluxe gatefold cardboard
sleeve with original silkscreened artwork by Japanese painter
Yoko Naito. The art contained in this edition is different from
the one-disc editon.
Limited to 70 copies.
