Fifty-seven years into a recording career, Hosono has arranged his own release schedule like a man planning a modest party. The lead track went up on his seventy-ninth birthday in July. The cover was commissioned from the painter Horigome Harune. The vinyl and CD carry liner notes in his own hand, which is the sort of gesture a younger artist would have to explain and he simply does. 出道第五十七年,第二十三張原創專輯。他自己說題目是母性與慈悲,這種大詞放在別人手上會垮掉,在他手上維持著一個很小的音量。

The press copy says Couperin, Rameau, Jacquet de La Guerre, which is accurate and tells you nothing about the shape of the thing. What Momen has actually built is two complete suites — Rameau's E minor of 1724, all eight movements, and Jacquet de La Guerre's second suite in G minor, also complete — with Couperin's character pieces threaded between them as connective tissue. The Tambourin and Le rappel des oiseaux arrive in their proper sequence rather than as recital bait. 宣傳寫「庫普蘭、拉摩、雅蓋・德・拉・蓋爾」,聽起來像一張三人選粹。翻曲目單完全不是那回事:拉摩 1724 年 E 小調組曲 RCT 2 八段全收,雅蓋・德・拉・蓋爾 G 小調第二組曲八段全收,庫普蘭的〈Le tic-toc-choc〉〈Les ombres errantes〉這些小品夾在中間當轉場,收尾是《Les concerts royaux》第四組曲的 Forlane。

Takemitsu wrote Toward the Sea in 1981 for alto flute and guitar, and then the harp version went out into the world and became the one everybody knows. Meera Maharaj and James Girling play the original scoring, all three movements, and the alto flute's lower register does something the harp arrangement cannot: it makes "Cape Cod" sound underlit. 武滿徹《Toward the Sea》1981 年寫給中音長笛與吉他,後來的豎琴版流通更廣,多數人聽到的是那個版本。這張回到原始編制,The Night/Moby Dick/Cape Cod 三個樂章全收,中音長笛的低音域讓〈Cape Cod〉暗了一層。

The credits list acoustic guitar, guitar synthesiser, MIDI-guitar sampler, drums, electric piano, keyboard synthesiser, percussion, zither, voice — all Mercereau — and then, separately, Carlos Niño: one microfrequency percussion sample. I find that division of labour funny and slightly moving. A credit specific enough to name a single sample is a credit that has been argued over. 先把 credits 當節目單讀一遍:木吉他、吉他合成器、MIDI 吉他取樣器、鼓、電鋼琴、鍵盤合成器、打擊樂、齊特琴、人聲,全是他一個人。然後單獨一行寫 Carlos Niño,貢獻是一條「微頻打擊樂取樣」。細到能指認單一取樣的 credit,通常代表這件事被認真討論過。

MJ Lenderman has covered him. So have Hayley Williams, Jeff Tweedy and Cameron Winter. Amos has spent a decade being the writer other writers borrow from, self-releasing something like a hundred records out of Chicago, and this is his first for Matador — a debut in the narrow industry sense and in no other. Nate Amos 說這張是在巡演貨車後座寫的:手上沒有吉他,也沒開電腦,動機在腦子裡放了幾個月才落地。

Before recording, the two of them set a rule: the electronics would not decorate the cello, and the cello would not sit at the centre with production arranged politely around it. Their working slogan is "the method is instability," which for once describes what happens. Quiet melodic fragments get interrupted and restarted; a bright synth chord opens out into cello writing that is nearly orchestral; late on, a broken organ-ish sample circles in place and refuses to resolve. 曲目表讀起來像一張誤點的行程:〈buffering〉〈emotional baggage allowance〉〈at the terminal but lost〉。七首全在寫候機廳那種被拉長又被切斷的時間感。

Belgian post-hardcore, recorded in Kortrijk by Michael Neyt and mixed by Kurt Ballou at God City, which tells you the frequency range before you press play. Jeremy Bolm sings on "Exit Strategy." The record closes with "Ripped Open I" and "Ripped Open II," a title split down the middle. First full-length after two EPs. 比利時科特賴克錄音,錄音師 Michael Neyt(Oathbreaker、Predatory Void),Kurt Ballou 在 God City 混——看到這條產線就知道頻段大概長什麼樣。〈Exit Strategy〉找了 Touché Amoré 的 Jeremy Bolm 唱。

A song on this album was called "The Pop Songs I Hate" until the rest of the band voted it down; it now goes by 〈矯〉, a single character. That is a useful thing to know about a Taichung band two years old and on its second album: the internal editing is real. 補記,9/9 發行。臺中樂團,2024 年成團,這是第二張。
