about

Set in “Yotsude”, an area where hut fishing is popular, this piece expresses the image of a scene with guitar phrases while looping sound sources recorded in the coastal area. Each song begins with a small number of notes, but in the latter half of the song, these notes transform into a drone.

Since the subject matter of this piece is local scenery, I was very particular about the equipment I used. I used voice memos on my iPhone for field recording, and Garageband for song editing. Only two types of delay loopers were used when recording the guitar. Despite being in a cheap and simple environment, I took great care to express my work.

01
For this piece, I used a sound source that I recorded on the coast, where there was no wind and the waves were quiet. The sound of crashing stones and weak waves are looped and gradually transformed into a drone sound. Cloudy skies and a bit of cold air are expressed by a guitar phrase with a small number of notes.

02
To record this song, I used the sound of a slightly strengthening wave breeze or a car driving on a nearby road, and looped them together. I used minimal guitar phrases to express the way the sun began to set a little and the sky darkened.

03
The water level is rising and the waves are getting stronger. I looped the sound of rough waves and the sound of empty cans floating in the river hitting the shacks. I used a minimum of guitar phrases to express the changing scene while feeling a slight headache as the air pressure drops.

04
The sun was setting and it was completely dark. I recorded the sound of water flowing into the rocks and looped it. I imagined the lights of a cruise ship floating brightly across a dark river, and expressed it with a short guitar phrase.

05
The wind had died down and the waves had become completely quiet. The moon was lighting up the water beautifully. I looped the sound of things hitting the shack on the water, the cries of creatures too dark to see, the sound of the quiet waves, and the sound of a car signaling a left turn toward home. I used minimal guitar phrases, imagining the moonlight shimmering on the rippling waves.

we're all beside a wooded creek, laying on this silken mossy chord, listening as leaves tumble down in succession. the pond nearby catches each leaf and we sync our thoughts using the chain of ripples in the water. thanks a lot for this one. recommended for relaxation or when it just gets to be too much out there Ews Nsj
