Yuichiro Fujimoto

Speaks Melodies Yuichiro Fujimoto Ltd edition

2012 release from the Japanese musician/artist. Speaks Melodies presents small audio sketches, micro sound sculptures and poetic songs that are pulled directly from everyday life. Atmospheric street sounds from an open window mesh with acoustic instrumentation, digitally manipulated acoustic guitar, xylophone, pianos and voice. Although highly experimental, the feel is unassuming and light, though not overly precious. Songs create abstract expressionist swashes of mood made up of pieces of real world ingredients that are a refreshing approach to music making. Yuichiro's sound is unique, fresh and raw, and almost zen-like in nature.
