どマイナー、どマニアックな作家/コンセプトの作品ばかりを手掛けているオランダUnsoundsより注目のタイトルがリリース。このレーベルの運営者でもある奇才Yannis Kyriakidesによるウィリアム・バロウズ "裸のランチ"に触発され制作したライブエレクトロニクス集!!基本は演劇/アクション系の現場っぽい雰囲気ですが、ササクレたボイス&パーカッションを軸とした音の作り込みが激ヤバ。ストレンジな前衛もの、電子音楽マニアまで大推薦。



Lunch Music by composer Yannis Kyriakides is a set of pieces for voices, percussion and live electronics, inspired by the 1959 book Naked Lunch by William S. Burroughs. On this recording the virtuosity of percussionists Slagwerk Den Haag (recently heard on the recording of Michael Gordon’s Timber) and contemporary vocal specialists of Silbersee are embedded in a rich sonic environment of electronics, modulated voices, grinding pulses and hallucinatory noises.

The concept of the music revolves around the idea of the polyphony of voices found in Naked Lunch. The effect of one voice speaking through another, of mediumship and possession, is a central musical concept in the piece, and it is manifested in the way the live electronics, controlled by the percussionists modu- lates the voices of the singers and the various fragments of samples heard: from the voice of Burroughs to snippets of 50s pop songs.

The piece, originally commissioned by Slagwerk Den Haag, was composed for the dance/music theatre piece of the same name, produced by Club Guy and Roni, Slagwerk Den Haag and Silbersee, that toured The Netherlands in the season 2013/2014 and is touring again in Spring 2016.
