Free Music Notes for Ki-Oku
Free Music Review: a mystic conscious of musical art
Hit: 5 Stars
DJ Krush is a japanese grand master, a man with a rare spirit, asking himself about human, about nature, arbnism...All this questions can be found in his music, the best electronical abstract hip hop i've never heard....If you can see him Live, you will dream for a long time. Peace mister Krush, you are a poet.
Ki-Oku Poster
Pairing DJ Krush, known throughout the beat underground for his subdued, trippy soundscapes, with Japanese avant trumpeter Toshinori Kondo may seem an odd pairing. This record, however, is instantly knowable and intuitively easy to grasp. Krush's beats, while certainly up-front, don't come at the price of the composition, nor do they blast Kondo's trumpet out of the tune. DJ Krush is not only able to drive the direction and tempo, but he's also quite adept at creating mood--often mixing up somber, downtempo collages that glide with an underwater grace. His uptempo work is direct, solidly propelled by someone who knows how to handle bass and breaks. Thankfully, the canvasses Krush mixes up are large enough to include Kondo's color work. The trumpeter (who's worked with the likes of Herbie Hancock and John Zorn) takes full advantage of the opportunity. Kondo is a breathy, richly toned player, and his meshings add to the dreamy, psychedelic feel of the recording. He's effective whether he's drifting beside Krush's swirling dub coiled in a haze of effects or punctuating beats with pure blasts of horn fire. A hip-bop classic. --S. DudaDance & DJ Music CDs
