時代の評価軸を静かにすり抜けながら、現在進行形で更新を続ける孤高の電子音楽家【Shinichi Atobe】。
セルフ・レーベルPlastic & Soundsから初となるアルバム「Silent Way」を3月27日にリリース。
5/18(月) WWWにて二部構成のリリースライブの開催が決定。
「Silent Way」は、ディープハウスとダブテクノのスペクトラムを、彼ならではの濃密でパーソナルなテーマの中に落とし込み"長尺作品"としての評価をさらに確固たるものにしている。
しなやかで官能的なハウスの最も純粋な流れと催眠的なテクノを軸に、霞がかったアンビエントやビートダウン調のグルーヴが巧みに差し込まれ、彼特有の空力的なグルーヴ感と、移ろいやすくもざらついたテクスチャーの融合を絶妙に中和する全10曲69分に及ぶ現在地となる。
本公演では、新作「Silent Way」のライブセットに加え、Minna-no-Kimochi x WWWで開催されたニューイヤー・パーティーでエクスクルーシブで披露された不朽のクラシック「Heat」のライブセットが再演される。
Eluding the shifting metrics of each era, yet continuing to evolve in real time, the solitary electronic music auteur Shinichi Atobe returns.
His first full-length album on his self-run label Plastic & Sounds, "Silent Way", will be released on March 27. A special two-part release live show has also been confirmed for May 18 (Mon) at WWW .
"Silent Way" further solidifies Atobe's reputation for long-form works, distilling the spectrum of deep house and dub techno into a richly personal and immersive framework.
Built upon the purest flow of supple, sensual house and hypnotic techno, the album is subtly interwoven with hazy ambient passages and beatdown grooves. These elements delicately balance his signature aerodynamic sense of rhythm with a fusion of mercurial and textured grit.
Spanning 10 tracks and 69 minutes, the album stands as a definitive statement of his current sonic trajectory.
At this performance, alongside a live set based on his new album "Silent Way," Atobe will also reprise a live set of his timeless classic "Heat," originally performed as an exclusive showcase at the Minna-no-Kimochi x WWW New Year's party.
