Label: Moving Furniture Records

エリアン・ラディーグからの強い影響を語るMoving FurnitureのオーナーOrphaxことSietse van Erveが、彼女へのオマージュ・シリーズとして2018年に始動したカセット専門のサブレーベルEliane Tapes。第六弾として発表された本作は、グループ及びソロ活動を25年以上に渡り継続しているベテラン・モジュラーシンセ使いNils Quakの持続音作。"一期一会"という意味深な日本語タイトルが付けられており、その内容は一切のオーバーダブなしで直接ディスクに録音されたというモジュラーシンセ即興。絶妙な倍音の変化がディープな恍惚へと誘う27分の長編2曲。100部限定。



Ichi-go ichi-e consists of two improvisations on a modular synthesizer recorded straight to disk with no additional overdubs. I have no recalling of the particular setup. But it was warm outside on a sunny August morning. The windows were open. Cars were passing by. Everything was calm.
Nothing dies. Everything vanishes.


About Nils Quak
For more than 25 years now, Nils Quak is recording music under his own name, differentmonikers or in bands. As a committed amateur he is deeply routed in the nonexistent scene of the European no audience underground (as coined by Rob Hayler of Radio Free Midwich).
His music – mostly improvised on modular synthesisers – moves between abrasive noise textures and distant washes of worn out new age synth tapes – sometimes comforting, sometimes gnawing at your senses like a bad acid trip.
