5.0 out of 5 stars
great collaboration!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Makoto Kawabata/Richard Youngs (Audio CD)
The fruits of tape trading between Acid Mothers Temple shaman & the adventurous minimalist composer, this album's five untitled tracks are immensely listenable. The first is beautiful and optimistic (surprising in the experimental genre, where art damage is the order of the day and debasement is the name of the game): Youngs' strong tenor intones, "You're so much better now," and "There's so much beauty now" while acoustic guitars chime and a shimmering sea of drone slowly builds in the background. The remaining tracks are all instrumental. Tracks 2, 4 & 5 embed a beautiful acoustic guitar melody in gauzy layers of drone. Track 3 is more aggressive, an extended drone piece that reminds you just who these two cats are, though still in keeping with the mindtrip nature of the music. Transporting & transcendent.

This review is from: Makoto Kawabata/Richard Youngs (Audio CD)
One-time collaboration (I'm guessing) for both Acid Mothers Temple key player Makoto Kawabata + Scottish minimalist composer Richard Youngs. Before hearing this CD, I've never heard any of Young's work. Total of five tracks - all are untitled. # 1 is very much new age, #2 is a good twelve-minute droning atmospheric piece, # 3 (to me) sounds like a quirky Acid Mothers rarity and cuts # 4 and # 5 are basically more new age sounds. I'm sure I hear acoustic guitar, autoharp, synthesizer, tape effects and organ being put to full use. It's safe to say that fans of Richard Youngs would likely get more out of this VHF label release that followers of the AMT.
