Setsubun Bean Unit: Setsubun Bean Unit

setsubun bean unitForget rice cakes, put Setsubun Bean Unit on the altar. During the Japanese Ondo festival gifts and dances appease and please hungry ghosts of ancestors. Matthew Herbert's Accidental label put out an offering. Mixing technological and Shinto magic -- embracing some African vibes via the Americas stuff too. Ondo dancers and singers join electric trumpet jazz, dub rhythms together with off kilter bell drum wackiness. Some stuff to dance to some stuff to drift to. All of it detailed and dreamy, quirky and charmed. :: Setsubun Bean Unit/Setsubun Bean Unit - Accidental/Pias/Rough Trade.

MOUTHUS

Best of the recent Our Mouth stuff is the first Sullivan solo CD-R. Sullivan's comes under the name Eskimo King, and /Tooth-Shaped Migration/ is five thick, detailed chunks of sound spread over a quick 17 minutes. What I dig most about Sullivan is his wide-open outlook on what sounds are worth making. Mouthus may concoct a lot of deep, textured noise, but they also use acoustic guitar loops, dirgey metal-like stomps, polyrhtyhmic meditations, busted rock riffs, and tons more.

„Nein, nein, kein Soundtrack! Wir kombinieren nur die Stücke auf unseren Alben - wir schneiden erstmal alles auf Band mit, um dann, vielleicht Monate später, zu sagen: Oh, das hier passt ja thematisch zu diesem Stück und auch zu jenem. Oder: Dieses Stück würden zu jenen Anderen passen, wäre es nicht so grottenschlecht. Also: Trash it.” Brian Sullivan/HE Interview
