baka! – ephmere (hitomi)
this is already the second release for hitomi recordings, a label focused on the
sound that is connected with improvisation and experimentation of all kinds.
After lunt’s album broken words and lost answers, hitomi signs the project baka!
as their second release. like their first release, ephemere treats
improvisation, electro acoustics, drones, guitar manipulations as well as a
guitar feedback... this album is a result of few live sessions and
improvisations which are blended together, mixed and edited into a unique track
of forty minutes. during which the ultimate minimalism slowly evolves through
the dark ambiental landscapes. while the whole sonic darkness crawls, the short
acoustic floatings temporarily pass by just so they intensify the soft noise.
the sound comes from afar. it travels through space and time to finally reach
light again. this time the outdoor light. it comes as completely faded from the
over-stressed moments. coming out at the surface from the dark canyons of the
subconsciousness until it enters in someone else’s and starts the same process
again...in god knows which form. again and again. until forever.
