her space holiday live with the american analog set and 13+god @ club metro in Kyoto



her space holiday is the music project by Marc Bianchi. he has released 5 album since 1996 from various labels, then his 5th work "young machine" got acclaimed at the point of his beautiful orchestration and groovy electronic sound production on the pop song style. this album attracted a lot of listeners. in this September, his latest album named "the past presents the future" has released. this abum is an extention of the former, that is, dreamy sound, beautiful strings arrangement, beats and rhythm, one of the best style of pop electronica is shown again through musical evolution.

6th October 2005, he came to club metro in Kyoto to let us know his new sound. at that night, the american analog set and 13+god take part in as guest.




1st stage was 13+god. 13+god are themselves and notwist.
dose one let the audience so hot and fever that he arranged nice opening of that party night.
the most hottest point of their stage that i think was the time when they played "pilot" a notwist's song. maybe nobody believe that they could listen live that notwist song there! of course me too:-)
people were really suprised and excited to listen it at that time.




2nd stage was the american analog set.
however, i don't remember so much about their performance. because, i was drinkin, took a rest and was busy to talk with my friend who i met that night. sorry :-P.
at least, i belieave that the audience was happy and shaking with stage performance.



as you know well, the final stage was her space holiday that most of people expected.
Marc and a bassist, drummer appered on stage. he operated laptop pc to play back track. basically, to the tune of pre-produced tracks, the band played guitar, bass, drum and some other instruments. songs that they played was selected almost from "young machine" and "the past presents the future".
i was so happy to listen "japanese gum" that was one of my favorite song by her space holiday.
but unfortunately, i had to leave when the show went half because that is behind about 30 minutes and the time of last train was closing to so i couldn't watch the rest of stage :-<
i think i must have missed the hottest time...
my frined told me after show by phone that they played 2 more songs as encore.
anyway, i enjoyed it very very very much!

tujiko noriko



tujiko noriko is the famous female electronica musician and she has released two related album recently. one is the "j" as ratn(with riow arai) from disque corde and another was "28" worked together with aoki takamasa from fatcat.
some tracks share the materials between these two albums, however it is also joyful for listener to compare each approach by each partner. on both of them her vocal was used aggressively and it showed high-quality as singing electronica. i belieave she is one of the best person who can sing on electronica track with beautiful unity. her voice was cool and warm beyond electronic rhythm track.

her new album will appear on this winter from mego.

anyway, i missed her japan tour in this september.......
