"How white it is! With no decoration, no nothing. Yet it's
a work of art in itself."
- Erik Satie on his vision of a single plate.
A designer creates upon careful deliberation of material, colour
and form, based on functionality.
In what at first appears to be an ordinary white plate lies a limitless
amount of ideas.
It is the user that recognizes the beauty in the plate; its creator
does not need to convey much.
So, what is the case with music? Is music a form of decoration?
It may be that certain people do think of it in that way. "Furniture
Music" does not contain excessive decoration. Rather, it invites
the listener to visualize the music as a decoration in his or her
own unique way.
Gak Sato
Following on from the first album, the CD forms part
of Furniture Music. It is the creation of Milan-based Gak Sato,
whose work represents a new form of music and a new way of enjoying
music.
The album also features Yuko Ikoma and Kosuke Shimidzu, a member
of mama!milk, the music group playing in Japan and abroad.
The collaboration with Sato sees the group's unique sound pleasantly
permeate the skin of each and every listener.
Sato has taken sounds from sessions recorded in early November 2006
at Hounen shrine, Fukuzou shrine and the Sfera Building and edited
these to create cosmosSfera vol.2.
In the same manner as the former album, cosmosSfera vol.2 is played
across several sound systems, allowing the listener to construct
his or her own world of sound.
Listeners are invited to enjoy the experience as a game of constantly
evolving sounds.
Amongst many projects, cosmosSfera vol.2 is Sfera's latest product
created under the theme "Space design based on sound".
I hope that you will enjoy it.
