ESP Institute to release EP from Obscure Sound’s Chee Shimizu
ESP Institute will release Chee Shimizu + miku-mari’s ‘Reconstructions’ on January 29th, 2021.
Just received some great and unexpected news from Andy Hogge aka Lovefingers. ESP Institute will put out the first ever EP from legendary Japanese collector Chee Shimizu and guitarist miku-mari. We’re obviously big fans of Chee and his Obscure Sound book so this release is a must!
From the label:
“Chee collaged various percussion samples and personal field recording utilizing four CDJs, supplementing with live windchimes and Andean chajchas, while miku-mari coupled a guitar-controlled synthesizer, ‘Sound Tube’ software (developed by Japanese Ambient composer Hiroshi Yoshimura) and more live elements such as Tibetan bells and pyramid crystals. Rehearsals for this performance were held at ForestLimit prior to the festival, recorded as multi-tracks and edited into two cerebral Reconstructions.”
