about

Improviser Junji Hirose is not just a sax player; in the 1980s he started playing the SSI (self-made sound instrument), which he created by combining numerous devices and everyday objects from which noise sounds are produced in a scattered way. In 1989, Hirose recorded the SSI/turntables duo album "Silanganan Ingay" with Otomo Yoshihide and released it independently as an LP. Three decades later, in 2022, a new SSI/turntables duo album by Hirose and Otomo has finally been made!

This CD contains live performances of three works that took place at Pool, Tokyo, on June 6, 2021. Otomo produces wild, wriggling noise sounds on two turntables. Hirose, in the first piece, uses the self-made sound instrument, version 4 (SSI4), which he set up with two bicycle wheels as central components. In the second, he plays the SSI6, which produces white noise by directing powerful bursts of air onto PE tape with two air compressors. And in track three, he uses the no-instrument air noise (NIAN), which turns powerful bursts of compressed air directly onto a mike set up on a stand, creating roaring noise that sounds like fierce wind.

即興演奏家の広瀬淳二は、サックス奏者とは別の顔を持つ。いくつもの道具や物を組み合わせて、そこからノイズ・サウンドを撒き散らす self-made sound instrument (SSI) と名付けた楽器を考案し、1980年代から演奏してきた。そして1989年、広瀬は SSI とターンテーブルによるデュオ・アルバム『Silanganan Ingay』(LP) を大友良英と録音し、自主リリースする。そして30年以上を経た2022年、SSIとターンテーブルによる新たな広瀬 / 大友デュオ・アルバムがついに誕生!!

本CDには、2021年６月６日、東京「Pool」で行われたライヴ演奏３曲を収録。大友はターンテーブル２台を使い、のたうつような奔放なノイズ音を生み出していく。広瀬は、一曲目では自転車の車輪２台をメインにセットした self-made sound instrument, version 4 (SSI4) を、二曲目では２台のエアー・コンプレッサーでPEテープに強烈な風を当ててホワイト・ノイズを作る self-made sound instrument, version 6 (SSI6) を、三曲目では１台のエアー・コンプレッサーでマイク・スタンドに立てたマイクにエアーを直接ぶつけて猛烈な嵐のような爆音ノイズを生む no-instrument air noise (NIAN) を使用。
