Ein grossartiger one-tracker mit ultra-sonorem Drone von HITOSHI KOJOs Projekt, dieser Breitwand-KlangStrom schillert in tausend akustischen Farben!

"defined by the artist as "around 19 minutes of harmonic drone piece, like warm mercurial metallic texture slowly flow through capillary vessels". we couldn't say better! full-colour printed 3" cd-r with artwork by hitoshi kojo." [label info]

"Spiracle is the big unknown here, being the project of Japanese Hitoshi Kojo, who now lives in Switzerland, were he has worked with Micheal Northam (as Kodama), Jgrzinich, Maurizio Bianchi, Yannick Dauby and Jonathan Coleclough, but he puts on his Spiracle hat when doing something solo. I am not sure what kind of sound sources he uses for his 'Lumen' piece, but I'm sure it's something created out of metal. Spiracle brings back the old Organum sound of 'In Extremis', which is a landmark in this field, in a chilling drone piece. Quite a nice work, this one." [FdW / Vital Weekly]
